In some instructions for using a drill comes this sentence:
La conexión eléctrica de los taladros portátiles se realizará mediante manguera antihumedad a partir del cuadro de planta, dotada con clavijas macho-hembra estancas.
Can someone help with this, especially the cuadro de planta?

(BrE) storey-level fuse board (box)
I assume the technical (electro-) Spanish translators are on holiday or on vacation right now.
My own tendency was to gravitate literally to 'floor-level' for the UK but, as the 2nd electricians' forums weblink shows, it is ambiguous for level with the ground, rather than the storey of the building.
'The electrical connection of the portable drills will be made ('effected or effectuated!') by means of...'.
Otherwise, as per the previous Biged Senior answer.
