It's not really fair giving us a pic of the outside of an enclosure and asking us to guess what's inside

It is the starting resistance bank (stage switching) for the start up of a slip-ring(wound rotor) motor.These type of motors were used because they can start up under heavy load.The resistance is used to limit the amount of current in the rotor on start up.Ideal for machines such as stone crushers, rubber mills etc.The resistance gradually switched out as the motor speeds up.
They were primarily used before the introduction of modern electronic drives but we still have a few about.
Got a pic of the inside??
