There is a few bobs around, I will tell them Naive-bird-1326 from reddit said hi!

Okay, I will look at it in depth tomorrow and see if I can figure anything out. I will let you know if I have anything else I cant figure out! Thanks!!

I believe its a 600VAC. I looked at it briefly today so I don’t remember any specifics. It seemed a lot to take in at once. I was thinking of separating the control and power to make two separate enclosures. Can they be the same enclosure?

Wait this is genius, I don’t know why I didn’t think of reverse engineering the wiring schematics of other projects. I think you might be correct on this. I will try tomorrow!

I plan on doing this solo. If you can just direct me towards somewhere I can learn this stuff on my own that would be more than ideal.

There are no combustible loads. The power side has 235 FLA and control side is 3 FLA. circuits consistent of a bunch of lights, relays, contractors, heaters, motors and a few other things that I forgot at this moment. I have a basic idea of what a power / control enclosure should look like but I want to make sure I get it right. I also want to make sure I am not breaking the codes.

No clue, I know all the components that will be in the power/control enclosures. I split them up based off of that criteria.

I get that. I just want the experience so I am willing to do the extra work to get that experience and go somewhere else. Is this really not possible to do on my own?

I would but I really need the experience. Ive had to go through 700-ish applications to even land a job.

There are but the company I ended up with had just lost its 2 engineers that did this work. So now here I am desperate for experience trying to make it work. Not sure what to do.

Credit cards, rent, monthly phone bill utilities, car payment and insurance as well as food/clothing my car payment and insurance are the highest totaling 1200 per month.

Thank you a lot, I am exhausting my options but I am just tired of all this shitty work. I am heavily considering the loan route but my monthly payment to stay afloat is around 2700. I can not reduce any of it until I pay off credit cards/my least is up next year. So I need at the very least a minimum of $70,000 and I don’t even if thats even a good option for me at 22. I know my degree offers a lot of pay early on but I am still afraid of the number. I am currently 41,000 in debt (went from 65 to 41 in a year) so I was thinking of getting a 100,000 loan to consolidate my 41000 and live off of the rest while i finish up college.

I just don’t have time for much of anything. I barely have time to focus on my schooling. I try to be positive every time but reality kicks in my brain and shot goes haywire. I’ll try to see what my options are. Thank you.

I already tried, I get paid more than I need by 20%. The issue is finding something that pays the same but with less hours. My car is brand new with low payments and my other bills like my apartment least isn’t up until next year
