Cable cutters, crimping tools, torque tools, insulation testers, multimeters, continuity testers, earth resistance testers, labeling machines, and personal protective equipment should be available according to the work type. The National Electrical Code (NEC) provides comprehensive safety standards for electrical installations, including requirements for electrical panels (main service panels and subpanels or breaker box). It serves as the centralized point that receives electrical power (typically under 1000V) and distributes it to various circuits or equipment. For this purpose an eyebolts arrangements are provided on top of the panel to facilitate safe handling. For design verification, testing is to be accomplished successfully in compliance with IEC 61439-1 and IEC 61439-2. Its design must account for transformer capacity, available fault current, and the true demand of downstream loads.
