250w kit assembled pics

Hi folks

I thought I'd just through this up for anyone waiting to build theirs or trying to workout how difficult the units are to put together

This wire is in when you open the box

Connect blue connector wire to negative terminal on one board

Connect brown connector wire to the positive terminal on the other board

Then these wire run to the "wago" connectors

In the other side if the connectors goes the same colour wire from the driver

On the other end of the driver, the mains connector then connects the 3 mains wires to the male/female adapter (male end removed to connect to the mains connector)

The female end of the adapter lead then just gets plugged into the rest of the kettle lead mains cable

And plug into mains

A few addition board pics just to show the size of the complete unit

Hope this helps a few people make the leap

Thanks for your time

Thank you, mate. It helps a lot. I may still ask questions though.

The board is put away atm, so I can't look.

You say "Connect blue connector wire to negative terminal on one board" and "Connect blue connector wire to negative terminal on one board"

Does it say on the board which is which?

Yes mate the negative terminal have a little minus sign " - " next to them

I can't see a + at the positive so it's easier to find the one with the -

No problem at all mate. I'm sure we will start having more invisible products appear in the gallery soon, hopefully with all the other smaller details of the build covered

Is this cable okay to get for it?

It's the only one in stock in our area.

Need to get a plug too. 3amp should be okay, yes?

It doesn't say 1.5mm though.
10amp. That's more than I thought it would need, but if you say that it's okay, then that'll be the one I'll get.

I know nothing about DIY other than Don't Involve Yourself.

I've had so many accidents with electricity, and many more close shaves that I become rather timorous when it comes to such things.
