I wonder where they got an orange Cam-Lok ?
Off a 480 volt cam set would be my guess.... Maybe that is why where are using such thin wires...
@SteveB You're in the U.S. and I'm posting from Canada.I wonder where they got an orange Cam-Lok ?
More egregious than the cam colors (at least they match the wires)* is that they're using multi-conductor cable with single-conductor connectors.If you have to do it wrong, here is a good example.
Since the connectors pictured are output, a good guess would be the other end is tied directly into a panel. With proper lugs and strain-relief of course.The real question is what does the other end of the cable look like and what is it tied into...
*The long-standing rule is that face tape / phase tape ALWAYS supersedes any other markings or designations. How long? About two minutes since I made it up. Have yet to see Production Arts feeder with Violet Scotch 33+ tape on it. Lots of DesignLab orange and ChicagoSpotlight yellow however.
There was a sound group loading in to the convention center. Didn't seem to trip them that the cam colors were brown-orange-yellow, and they didn't meter the tails. $10k of magic smoke later they learned it was a 480V company switch. [There are now two 300kVA transformers to provide 208Y/120. Why 480 was run is anyone's guess.]
