Circuits

  • Circuit breakers on the main DC Panel are identified by Column and Row number, e.g. Breaker 1,1 is the top left Circuit breaker.
  • Most circuits from circuit breakers first pass through a din rail mount cage clamp connector block. Each block has three connections with Red, Yellow and Blue levers. The blocks are mounted vertically behind the DC panel and are refered to by color, R,Y, or B, and block number, from the top down e.g. B4, blue lever on the fourth block down.
