English term or phrase: shipping joint
Il s'agit de procédures d'essai concernant un tableau ("switchboard"). J'ai cette phrase : "the mains busbars will be tested and recorded at each shipping joint to determine the contact resistance".

Est-ce que le "shipping joint" pourrait correspondre à une sorte de joint d'expédition (élément protecteur pour le transport/l'expédition) ?

Merci d'avance de votre aide !

Explanation:
En effet, ce sont des joints protecteurs.

Remove the four shipping joint gasket protectors

neutral  Tony M: I don't believe these are 'protective seals' at all, and hence I have grave doubts about the suitability of this suggested term.

I'm just seeking with this 'Aunt Sally' to clear up the possible ambiguity in both halves of this term.

  -> No it's not! This text is talking about longitudinal joins in busbars that have to be slpit as they would otherwise be too long for shipping; nothing whatever to do with 'terminal blocks'!
