I worked on a few systems back when I worked for a UPS company I worked on them in NYC there are a lot of them still in use today. I remember one I worked on where we were updating NY telephone back up power system they had solid copper buss bars 5 times bigger than yours has . I remember they just threw out the copper . If I had that copper today I could buy a house in the Hampains!
Thats a neat board, how big is it?

I can imagine, this board s only 300A. I can only imagine the feeders and main switches in a huge facory or machine shop.
