FERNANDO'S NOTES ON LV POWER DISTRIBUTION
PRACTICAL IMPLEMENTATION CABLING
- Found suitable connector with 6 pins
- HV
- Ground
- Signal
- Problem: Flat cables interfere with HV cables --> shift connectors
- Horizontal back chaining with shifted connectors
- less work than connector on side, but more risky during assembly/disassembly
- Three issues - most problematic: interference with HV cables
- Discussion: can one cut connector
- need only three pins, so maybe can cut to resolve interference with HV cables
- Alternative: connector on the side
- less risky
- requires more work - have to make additional cables etc.
- requires fabrication of 1000 flat cables and ~30 other cables - time estimate: ~3 weeks
- PCB design time estimate: ~3 months (expect ready early 2022)
- Action item:
- write to DSG and ask if available to take on cable fabrication task
- provide information on connector and placement to Fernando
- Discussion: additional grounding
- action item: investigate how this may be realized
NEXT MEETING: NPS MEETING ON THURSDAY 30 SEPTEMBER AT 9AM ET
