English term or phrase: SOURCE shipping container ( nuevamente la misma pregunta)
Open the Electronics Enclosure and turn OFF all circuit breaker switches. They are located on the left side of the cabinet.
2.If available, a qualified and authorized individual is to move the sources from the xxx to the source shipping container

No me preocupa tanto cóm traducir "shipping container" sino SOURCE SHIPPING CONTAINER. Gracias.
Geraldine
Spanish translation:fuente radioactiva
Explanation:
Geraldine, my guess is that the text is talking about "radioactive sources", which must always be placed in special containers and handled by authorized individuals. So, I would translate "source" as "fuente radioactiva".
