This module follows electricity from the battery through the main breaker to the branch circuits, and teaches how circuit protection keeps the robot safe and legal.
Power: Battery, Breakers, and the Main Circuit is module 2 of 8 in the Electrical & Wiring guide. It picks up where The FRC Control System: Meet the Components left off and hands over to Motor Controllers and the CAN Bus. Its 5 lessons are about 98 minutes of the guide's ~14 hours.
