Panel mock up after it was cut out and panel primed. Tomorrow is the real paint on the panel
I have a big shop and was thinking about placing the brew stand up against a wall and mounting the panel on the wall but I really like wheeling the stand around to wherever I want. On nice days I can wheel it out the garage door and on crappy days I can brew inside. I like to be mobile!
Looking good! I have a few questions on your wiring so far...
Do you need partitions between your neutral/hot/hot terminal blocks? I think most people use something to separate them.
Do you need to use #6 wire from the DIN blocks to the breakers or is it okay to drop down in size since it's such a short run? I thought I read something about doing it your way this on the forum but can't remember where.
Also, where did you get your breakers? I was thinking of getting them from ebrewsupply but they only carry 15A and 25A.
i only live 2 hours from portland and i am fighting every urge to drive down there and pick up the mt and hlt...
Wouldn't the main contactor shut off as soon as you try to turn on a pump/element?
Looking forward to seeing how your interlock goes Cheez. I was actually thinking about that same relay a couple days ago before I saw your threads. Please let us know how it goes and what you end up doing with the wiring. My build will be a lot like yours except I will just use 1 element at a time. Good luck and great job so far!
Hey man. I was just checking in on the build. Hope everything is coming along. Enjoy your new setup!
Were you able to confirm that the interlock/relay setup you went with works correctly or do you have to wait to check that out? The panel looks great BTW.
Looks awesome Cheez. Where did you end up getting the label tags?
Sorry to be a pain Cheez but do you remember what point size you used for the lettering on the tags?
