MFRFP Build Update #4 - January 11th 2007

The electrical system is completely wired and tested. We attached a gas powered generator to the main panel box via a plug and all voltages are correct! We have set the system up with 4 110v 15 amp circuits as well as one 220v 20 amp circuit. The water system and individual power circuits are all individually switched off of a 40 amp primary breaker.

All belts have been sourced for the driven components, we are in the process of getting the tensioners fabricated and have located the pulleys to use as well. A change in design due the water convection needed for cooling was to incline the radiator so the inlet for the hot water is higher than the outlet. A directional fan was installed and will be wired to a 15 amp 12v power inverter. The cooling system outlets for the engine have been installed and we are waiting on some adapters to attach the coolant hoses to the engine as well as the radiator.
