Re: Ordering Materials

The PDP has two different connections on it. For the traditional 40/30/20 Amp breakers, it uses the same connectors as we have previously.

For the Rio, and your first VRM & PCM, you use the Weidmüller connectors. The Weidmüller take bare copper and do not require anything to be crimped to it. That said, I recommend tinning the wires to prevent them from getting "mashed" after repeated insertions/removals.
