Re: Popped Main Breaker
It can be pretty easy to pop the main breaker if you chose the wrong gear ratio for your motors. Our robot runs 8 motors this year, if we managed to choose the gear wrong ratios for all of them, we could draw as much 210 amps of power without tripping any of the individual motor breakers. That would defiantly trip the main breaker.
The last time we tripped a breaker probably was in 2003 from repeated heavy loads from ramming other robots on the ramp.
