Found this at work when asked to reinstate an extract unit.
Boss thought it may be disconnected in the DB.
Traced swa and found still conneto the trunking.
Looked on the DB and found the machine name was there but with another machine on the same circuit.
Removed the cover found this.
Machine wanted is the smaller cable.
Removed the larger cable after asking OPs about the other machine and was told it was removed a while ago.
Got the extract working and then set about tracing the other swa.
Traced to a 32A three phase socket.
The type with its own breaker.
This was cable tied to the tray work high up.
Set about removing it and found the DB end had no earth.
Thought not good but at least it was connected to the trunking properly but with no earth from the banjo to DB.
Then came the worst of it.
Remoethe top off the plastic three phase socket and found no earth at all.
The machine ran for years like this with no earth protection.
Asked the mechanical engineer and he said they had had a few dodgy sparkies in the past.
