Negative bus wired up and we needed the buss - 2013

September 2013 - s\v Elegant'sea is currently in Paradise Village Marina in Banderas Bay Mexico (by Puerto Vallarta)

The bus on the left is the we added. Had to put it down a bit so we could get a wrench and or socket on the new bus.

 

Only negative (pun) is it is a bit crooked 😣

The loose black cable is to the wind generator which we are still trouble shooting. 

I was wondering if this was over kill adding another bus. Now way is it over kill as it turns out! 

 We really needed to add this bus. It is almost full as is the original one. That is with three cables per stud. All but a cable are connecting from the bottom.
 Now with unscrewing one nut and removing one cable that is easy to reach the neg ground is completely dis-connected. The shunt is also free of the extra cables.
Lots of wire ties to be put on and the cables need to get staked down so they do not move but we are much happier with this new bus being added. The cables are not straining with too many on a stud etc.
