Narrative: Need to clean up homestead DC wiring. I have four different buss voltages, 12VDC, 24VDC, 48VDC and Solar 32-44V. The house distribution is red/black even though I’ve identified the buss voltages by color, red 12V, Orange 24V, Purple 48V and solar is Yellow.

Yesterday I accidently connected the solar to the 12V buss when I repurposed a wire used for the driveway IR illuminator. I lost a couple 12V items because of that. 🙁 Most everything in the house can run on 24, it’s just less electronic noise to run it on 12V. The 12V is “converted” from the 24V buss and has a 10A capability with redundancy. After installing the fuse block I was still short three connections that had to be temporarily patched onto one fuse with cords I was using before.

Feelings: We’ve still not dealt with the 6 blocks in Seattle?

Tomorrow: Church in the evening, grocery order.
