Re: What hath we wrought? 2016 Horror Stories

I learned that if the battery cables can be rocked back and forth at the battery or at breaker, they are too loose and will cause high current draws that shutdown the robot.
Same for the wires between the breaker and the power distribution board.

Add the bouncing over defenses, robot on robot contact, and loose power connectors to the radio either at the barrel plug or at the pdp and you get a dead robot.

If you can pull wires out of the pdp wago connector they are too loose.
