M & E plinths were made of brick to a height of about 1.60 metres and housed the Mechanical and Electrical transformer and switchgear used to keep the electricity supply at a constant voltage. As junction boxes they received in a mains electricity supply and distributed it though a number of outlets to buildings on the site.
