Re: Extra pd ground block or circuit breaker?
Guru,
The Robot Electrical Diagram on the First website and the Tips and Guidelines both have a recommendation for this. All motors that are connected to 40 amp breakers should return to the power distribution terminals which have terminals on both sides. (this gives you less power loss) You can terminate 2 #10 or #12 wires to each side. Assuming you have installed the yellow jumpers on both the red and black blocks you should be able to accomodate all your 40 amp loads. Please do not daisy chain the #6 from the terminal block through the Maxi block to a small fuse panel. This will lower the avialble voltage for loads connected to the small block. As Jim stated above, returns (black wires) for 30 and 20 amp circuits should be returned to the common block on the smaller fuse panel.
