    Well you now have a very nice neat machine with a suburb looking control box. Looking at the picture of the spindle do you have a cable restraint to stop the cable breaking at the plug as this could be detrimental to the VFD.

    Big thumbs up. Happy New Year

    Hi Clive
    Thanks for the comments !

    Cable is hard wired (no plug) through the cap onto the motor cables. There is a large cable restraint on top of the end cap which allows a gentle radius on the cable.
    I did this after the previous one arced at the plug and blew and killed the VFD.
    See post #27 for another picture. I'm away from PC but I posted on it in another thread when my VFD blew

    My next machine will have the cable running in energy chains rather than hanging in midair but I need a new longer cable to make that happen.
