Remote control installation

Some work was done two weeks ago. The power outlets behind the fake wall was installed and also connected to a new power central which was put up during the same weekend. Currently the amplifier room and the radio shack is connected to it. Each operating position (#3 and #4 shares) can be turned on/off from inside the shack and each operating position is also independently fused.

I added a 24V supply in the basement which is used for contactors etc to turn on/off amplifiers.

Still snow at the station, however a lot melted during the weekend.


Snow snow and more snow


Contactor used to turn on/off the amp.


The grey box on the top right is the remote control box for the amp which I recently built.


The power outlets behind the fake wall. Operation position #1 and #2 has got 8 outlets each and position #3 and #4 shares 8 outlets.


Cheap cable holders (thanks for the idea K1TTT). These work UFB, they are not the prettiest but they work and are cheap.


A bunch made


New power central was installed. Currently the amplifier room and the radio shack is installed to it. Operating position #1, #2 and 3+4 are fused independently.


Decoupling on the 24V output


The 24V supply with the box to turn one wall outlet on/off.


Cable holders in place with two cables running inside. Those are control cables for the amplifier.


Contact block which connects the black thick cable going from the shack with the cable to the amplifier.


24V supply temporarily in place


The contactor on the wall, I didn’t have enough cable clips so I will finish that up later.


The amp room, a bit messy but this was taken right after the installation was done.
