RE: meaning of bay
RE: meaning of bay
There are small bays, containing a water filter or control gear and there are larger bays aka cubicles. These tend to be closed. There are open or closed bays for power distribution and motor starters etcetera, often called "panels". These are usually placed under a roof or inside a building. Then, there are open-air bays like those you see in a switchyard. There, you find transformer bays (often concrete cells to keep oil and debris from flying all over the place), breaker bays, incoming and outgoing bays where transmission lines "land" and "start".
I haven't found any narrow meaning of the word. It is used in many ways. I think sometimes even as a synonym to "booth".
