Re: Design of a pull out electrical panel

We've had a self-contained, pull-out, electrical/electronics system box for the past 2 years. We've used straps to hold them in place. This year's was more compact than last years. We were planning on making it plug in this year, but that turned out to be difficult to accomplish, so we just had sets of connectors that plugged into the box by hand. The motor cables connect with groupings of smaller Anderson connectors. The signal cables for the sensors and stuff connect with DB-25 connectors.

We have lots of photos of them in the photo galleries on my web site (link below).
