So I did a gig recently where there was a 50 amp company switch and I found attached to it was the camlocks. But from camlock it went into a soco-break in and down the line had a breakout with the cam ends to the distro. I've never seen this before but I was told it's actually code... But since the equipment I saw was rather sketchy in itself- stolen hotel distro(with wooden backing and no metal lid. Extra professional), chinese scanners, and whatnot, I can't help but feel like this guy is not a certified electrician...
But the way he explained it to me was that he was taking the cams and putting two of the circuits from the soco into a single cam. And since there was only 3 cams, six circuits worked just fine for it. I didn't stay around for the show but I was told stuff was going wrong the whole time... no surprise. Just didn't know what was the cause of it all.
So anyways. Was that explanation actually up to code..?
