fogyasztó (NOT "customer")

Hungarian to English Tech/Engineering Aerospace / Aviation / Space

The context is a fictional story (written recently) about an airplane in the 1970s - so it might not be technically accurate.
The guys in the cockpit are going through a technical checklist, making sure various parts of the plane are working, before takeoff. One of the items is:
Első panel fogyasztói.
To which the answer is:
Bekapcsolva.
Clearly this is not fogyasztó in the sense of customer/consumer. I think it may be some kind of electrical connector.
Anyone?

Sándor Hamvas Apr 9, 2021: Fogyasztó Volt már egy hasonló kérdés. Akkor nem tudtam meggyőzni a fordítótársakat a consumer kifejezés helytállóságáról. Most talán az Oxford és a többi link meggyőzi őket. De ha mégsem, akkor azt írnám (bocs, én consumer-t írnék, és azt javasolnám) hogy: Electrical equipment supplied from Panel 1.
