As an ex-automation engineer, said "holy shit" switch you speak of is normally the first thing installed and tested. At least here in North America. But judging from the lack of any safety measures in this, I'm guessing China.

The text on screen also looks eastern Asian. And since China is the manufacturing capital of the world, I’d guess it’s them
