What happens here

The electrician then moves to the main power disconnect for the HVAC unit. He opens the disconnect box and identifies it as a 60 Amp, 240 Volt unit. He notes that it is currently in an 'off' and 'locked out' state, which is a standard safety procedure. Upon opening, the internal components and wiring are visible, showing it is a 3-phase power connection.
