Thanks!
Hi guys!
The consensus here seems to be that the DC must be documented. I have always documented it in some form, but I wanted to ensure it wasn't overkill. It's nice to know I'm on the right track.
Now, as to HOW to document it --
Kevin : This is a very good method, and one I'll have to look into further. My usual power supplies have self-resetting overload protection, but there are fusible terminals out there that might serve this purpose very well (right, Jesper? ) I'm going to have to get some of those on order!
Eric : Excellent example, and you did a great job justifying your position. I used to put the DC terminals on the same page as the IO they involved, but it got cluttered pretty fast, so I went with the "central page" approach. Thanks for the specifics!
Rick : It's good to know the method I use is common, so with a few of the refinements we've discussed here, I'm confident going forward that my guys will be able to follow the schematic easily The extra page is a good idea - I'm going to have to look into that one.
Arik / Rick : I have no problem putting the second switch into the circuit. I just have to figure out HOW to squeeze that little sucker in there
Thanks again, everybody! I'm starting to feel a little more confident about all of this now!
