Go to Post Engineering literature? Is that like jumbo shrimp, military intelligence, or legal brief? You know, an oxymoron? - Richard Wallace [more]

Re: pic: Epsilon Delta v17.0 Control System

It's not uncommon for teams to wire more speed controllers than they need, in order for them to quickly switch to a backup in case of a failure. Based on all 15 being wired to the PDB but only 13 having breakers, I'm assuming this is the case here.

I'm guessing they have a 6 motor drive, 2 motor shooter, a motorized drop down intake (at least 2 motors), and 2 to lift with 1 for something else (extra motor for intake, or a pivot for their lift)

Very nice box. We have something similar, but ours does not fold down. These drop in electrical boxes seem to be getting more popular.

Very nice. We did this on 93 in 2004 and 2005. Is an awesome space saver, though the electrical team didn't like wiring it up...
