Electricity cupboards identification, 600 x 100mm horizontal, in satin natural anodised aluminium at $40 or composite ACM silver brushed at $35.
These are the smaller cupboards — metering, sub-boards, the cupboard in the lobby that holds the tenancy meters — as distinct from a full electrical room or the main switchboard. In a residential or mixed-use building there are usually several, and they are among the doors most often left unmarked because individually none of them seems important enough to sign.
Electrical installations are governed by AS/NZS 3000, and the practical argument for signing a meter cupboard is the same as for any other electrical enclosure: the person who opens it should know what is behind the door before they do.
The range separates these from Electrical Room, Main Switch Room and Electrical Distribution Board deliberately. Using one legend across all four is the common shortcut, and it removes the only information the sign was there to give — which of them you are standing in front of.
