Spanish term or phrase: bornero
Hola,

Creo que en el texto que estoy traduciendo la palabra "bornero" se refiere a un panel como el que hay en la foto -a una central donde llegan cables controles eléctricos, esta es una central para trenes de un sistema de metro.

No tengo contexto es simplemente una frase en abreviaciones que dice "bonero de local técnico"

Gracias
Gracias por la ayuda.

Explanation:
García Díaz. Diccionario técnico. Editorial Limusa.

Rocio, se escribe "borne" no "bornero" y por eso no pudiste encontrarlo.

Asker: Me imagino que es un neologismo medio técnico, los bornes que conozco son de la batería del auto, me imaginé que por ahí venía la mano :)
