This is the PD panel being used in the 2015 FIRST Robotics Competition Kit of Parts.

The Power Distribution Panel (PDP) from Cross the Road Electronics is the latest DC power interface for competition robotics. The PDP uses CAN to connect directly to the roboRIO and allows for individual current monitoring on each channel.

Replacement 20 Amp Mini Yellow Fuse (am-3605) & 10 Amp Mini Red Fuse (am-4053) are available as well.
