8 Hinweise auf nicht abgechaltete Stromkreise/Fremdspannung
8.1 am Hauptschalter

I may be making this more difficult than it should be, is it simply "information on connected circuits/external voltage?"

thanks very much!

information on live electric lines


Explanation:
if this is part of a visual inspection, I can only imagine that the operator should control if there are warnings close to the switches and attached to the cables, that they are not voltage-free or that the cable colour indicates this fact.
