Installation
Decisions on how to install equiptment
Brute Force
- Works great for simple motor applications, plainer, jointer, mill, lathe, ect.
- When using this method, think about “if this tool lost power while using it, what would happen”
- If injury could occur, use the “elegant” method.
- Direct interruption of power lines, this is applicable for single phase (120vac @ 10amps) tools with the simple relay board or if you employ a larger contactor 3 phase pieces of equipment up to the rating of the contactor.
Elegant
- interruption of the start circuitry or running circuitry.
- requires knowledge of basic circuitry
- more involved install
- uses relay board part (xx) to intrurupt controls rather than power circuits
