    Neat! I just looked it up now, it's a Westinghouse SPB-100 ( https://jurassicpark.fandom.com/wiki/Circuit_Breakers ). I always thought that the main breaker looked much more real t…

    "Under the words 'Contact Position' there's a button that says 'Push to Close'". "Push it." When Spielberg was on he was ON! Who else could take a scene like "they have to reset th…
