This methodology document highlights the technical guidelines for the installation of Electrical Distribution Boards (DBs). Additionally site team will need detailed information of all aspects associated with the installation process in order to complete the job inline with the. Wiring a Distribution Board is vital in any electrical installation. The Main feeder cable to the Distribution Board should be able to handle the total power anticipated when all the sub circuits in the Distribution Board. Connection method: Each switch takes a wire from the incoming point and connects it to the incoming end of the switch, or uses parallel connection to reduce the difficulty of wiring.
Wiring arrangement: Arrange the wires neatly in the box, fix them with zip ties, avoid wires from tangling or coming into contact with sharp edges, and reserve a certain amount of space
