Tom, yes a bit crammed, but still manageable.



The ends of the 10 coils are connected to the bridge rectifiers's AC side, and the + and - terminals are all connected to + and - buses. The alu cable is squeezed between 2 copper strips, so far there hasn't been any corroding issues, connection lube seesm to have kept the connection good.



The junktion box, also at the bottom of the tower. The one at the tower top is a bit more crammed version of this.. and who needs brake switches when god inveted the steel wire ;)
