There are several motors located in a gas treating plant. They are mostly fractional horse power motors made by Baldor and US Motors and are used in gas processing. On an occaion, I noticed that there are no connection terminals inside the motors' connection boxes, so winding ends and input power cables' ends have been just taped together inside the boxes. Although connection boxes are claimed to be explosion-proof and sealed by neopern gaskets, I still think there must be a better way for such critical connections.
