Title: Power wires coming off of PSU due to vibration
Post by: EVilaghy on December 22, 2014, 06:23:18 AM
I hope this is the right location for this post.  

I'm building my mining farm as I type this.  The electricians have been working in my basement after my contractor has built me a room down there.  After they are done, I was told I could safely run 56 S1s.

Friday My Alarm will be remotely monitored and smoke detectors will be installed down there.

My main issue is that the power wires keep coming loose on the PSU and I was wondering is anyone has hot glued them on after they had been hooked up?  I'm using Dell 750 Watt PSUs

Do you mean the wires on plug it goes in keeps coming loose?  What is vibration coming from?

Vibration coming from the fans in the PSUs ans the air from the fans also doesn't help.  We are using female terminals to attach the wires.  Is this the best solution?

Almost done with the room.  My electrician now says I will be able to get 112 machines in there safely.  I'm excited and ready to grow.

We are going to use a terminal board for the power and are already using special spade terminals on the wires now.  I"ll get a picture tomorrow or friday.

How did you solve your loose wire problem?

112 machines, its a big operation, good luck dude. Right time too with the difficulty remaining attractive.
