Question:

I need to install a shunt trip?

I have a building with an elevator, I have been told that it needs a Shunt Trip wired through a Heat Detector to deactivate the Elevator.All I can tell you is, the Elevator is 60A 220V, so have been told that is what my shunt unit should disconnect, but how do I wire the incoming power? The Heat detectors that we used elsewhere in the building are 24v wired from a Class B wiring, using single pair wiring, and E.O.L resistors. Can I use power from my Fire Alarm Panel, or do I have to use a different Heat Detector, what do I need to do, and how do I wire it?

Answer:

Get yourself a large funnel and a marble. Black holes distort space into 'gravitational potential wells' - you can picture space around them like a funnel - in every direction. Put the marble at the top and give it a perpendicular velocity (along the outside edge of the funnel) so it spirals in. That's what happens in space with material. You can find images online from the Chandra x-ray telescope of material spiraling into black holes and being superheated in the process - and emitting x-rays. Although I'd suggest you leave the x-rays out of your project.
u should always have a buddy system when in far away places
