Completeness and transport damages

lists.
➭ Compare the serial number of the switchgear panels on the delivery note with that on the
packing and the rating plates of the panels.

PE film together again and do not remove it totally until reaching the final mounting
position in order to keep the switchgear as clean as possible.
