I would like to purchase contactor(s), circuit breakers, etc. for my Acorn cabinet. I want to insure that my wiring is safe and complies as much as possible to the Acorn wiring diagrams.
Can anyone make a suggestion where I can purchase these, one stop shopping, and maybe some thoughts on contactor size or a reference on how I should size/determine capacity of these components? I have a small CNC router with 3 Gecko G201X stepper drivers and a 1HP spindle/VFD.
Thanks,
Peter

I have had good success ordering from https://www.factorymation.com. Several YouTube channels like FrancoCNC and martyscncgarage have some great videos on building control cabinets.
