This may sound simplistic, but mount a control box on the machine with and main disconnect and breakers in it, and just one set of larger wires out to the main power box. The control box could even just be a breaker box. On 02/05/2016 04:22 PM, Todd Zuercher wrote: > We

Todd, If you have multiple single phase breakers feeding that machine, that is probably not your only issue when it comes to Osha. You need a decent Estop system on the machine also which means at the least one or more Estop circuits and some contactors to drop out the power, or more

Todd, I would get a larger box to hold much of the controls, then put a 12 location load center with 15 amp breakers in it. Then mount a single disconnect box next to the control box and run a small piece of conduit between them. One place to lock out, all the wiring is now centralized and
