That black is spray silicone?

Potting compound.

Have you welded those plugs?

Yes they are welded together so they make a tighter fit. You can lift up the PSU by the plugs and they won't come out. Then we just used non-conductive potting compound to seal them in for eternity.

Nice. How did you weld that, is it copper?

They are aluminum alloy. We used a Miller Dynasty 200 and Tig welded them.

I wonder what you do when you want to remove or tighten the bottom wire?

I drilled out the outer plug before I welded it. You just remove the outer plug and the screwdriver goes through to the inner plug.

Very nice, that was smart.

How long have you been working with these?
