Re: More Power Distribution Block Questions
Joe is correct, nice job, Joe. The main circuit breaker, battery, large and small fuse panels all need to use #6 wire per the Power Distribution Diagram. Remember the Power Diagram is referenced in the robot rules. (The heavy weight lines on the drawing are all #6, either red for positive or black for negative) If you choose to use #12 for your 40 amp circuits then the return lines (black wires) should come back to the Rockwell Power Distro Block. The Q&A has responded that you may return these wires to the common buss on the small fuse panels but I recommend against this. When you return all high current lines to the block, they will not add to the voltage drop in the wires feeding the panel. The critical issue is pulling the RC below 8 volts. This is very easily done when you sum currents in your wiring.
