Go to Post I think there are a ton of teams that would kill for one let alone three engineering mentors (especially one with the knowledge and experience that Rich Olivera has). - XaulZan11 [more]

Blowing 60 Amp fuse

Posted by Joe Johnson, Engineer on team #47, Chief Delphi, from Pontiac Central High School and Delphi Automotive Systems.

Has anyone else had any problems blowing the 60 Amp fuse?

We have had 2 cases in all our practices, matches, etc.

One could have been a fluke. Two scares me to sleeplessness.

We think we have found a pretty good work around to make sure it never happens again, but... I am wondering if anyone else has seen this problem.

Up until this year, we NEVER had one of these fuses blow except when it was protecting against a dead short. Perhaps this year, with all the great motors and the new Victors, we have reached another constaint that teams will have to live within.

I'll have to admit, this is a kind of dangerous game coming so close to the edge of a contraint that essentially means your robot doesn't move any more for the rest of the match, but... ...if it was easy, everyone would have already done it ;-)

Joe J.
