Hi all,

I have just started a new job, and have been chucked in the deep end. The previous electrician had added many new circuits to a few huge distribution boards but left all the circuits unlabelled. I have been asked to identify all unknown circuits, but have been asked not to turn any breakers off as the site/ all machinery needs constant power. As i cant flip each breaker one by one seeing what it would turn off, and i cannot trace the cables from the given c/b to the machinery i was wondering the easiest way of finding out which breakers power which machinery.

Any help would be massively appreciated :)
