Electrical installation example

Unfortunately, the lid cannot be closed when there's something plugged into the power outlet on the hut rail. Thats why there is a second power outlet inside the distribution box.

Warning

If dealing with the electrical aspect isn't within your comfort zone, it's advisable to seek assistance from an electrician, as mishandling it can pose serious risks.
