Re: pic: 2200 Finished the Main wiring!!
It looks really nice. Someone must have spent a lot of time making the wires look neat.
It looks like the two maxi blocks are connected through one another. Is this right? It if is, then according to R50, there has to be another 6 awg wire connecting it to the Rockwell distribution block.
<R50> The 12V battery, the main 120-amp circuit breaker, the power distribution block, and circuit
breaker distribution panels shall be connected as shown in the 2008 Power Distribution
Diagram. In particular:
The battery must be connected to the ROBOT power system through the use of the
Anderson Power Products (APP) connector.
The APP connector must be attached to the battery with either the copper lugs provided
in the FCI Burndy Bag or appropriate crimp-on lug connectors.
The battery terminals and the connecting lugs must be insulated with shrink tubing
and/or electrical tape.
The main 120-amp circuit breaker must be directly connected to the hot (+) leg of the
ROBOT-side APP connector. Only one 120 amp main circuit breaker is allowed. This
breaker must not be bypassed.
The power distribution block must be directly connected to the APP connector and main
120-amp circuit breaker. No other loads may be connected to the main 120-amp circuit
breaker.
All circuit breaker distribution panels must be connected directly to the power
distribution block. No intermediate connections are permitted.
Additional lengths of #6 red and #6 black wire may be used to reach the panels as
needed to make the above connections.
Circuit breakers must be accessible for inspection at each FIRST Robotics Competition
event.
Oh, and why do you need eight 40 amp loads?
