Sure, we decided not to use any power outlets for as much as we can, since I had a fire accident once and it was determined a weak point.
So the circuit breaker is right there and it is very convenient to control miners on the spot.
Miners connect to the power source in the blue boxes right below the MCBs:



Joining power cords, in my personal opinion, doesn't hurt, if you've done the calculations (which I am sure you did).
The owners here are extra careful and they don't want to have a slight chance of hurting people's equipment, so would probably not allow us to experiment with the electrical part.
Chinese people just brought lots of miners, and it seems like they still have lots of them sitting in China and not doing anything (I am surprised, because the hashrate already recovered).
Or maybe they still mine, just on a smaller scale Wink




I see no PDUs and many small MCBc near the miners, they all look a single-pole so how do you wire the Natural and Ground? can you take a closer picture showing the MCB wiring and explain a bit your set-up?  your setup is kind of similar to mine, I don't use PDUs (want to start using them for better management) and I join the power cord wires together, this is probably against the code for many countries like the U.S so it could scare a few folks away lol.
