Working Hard For Thesis

It's been a week since the last time I posted here, not because I was procrastinated but because I was super busy finishing our project. The initial announcement for our final defense is at April 19 that's why last week we rush a lot of things and build a foundation then make our enclosure box.

However, a good news came when an announcement says that the final defense will be moved on the first week of march, which gives us relief since we can't finish the whole charging station in a short time since there's a wiring and testing needed to do.

This is the spot we choose and it's a heavy work to unload those pile of gravel and sand since we need to clean the area.

As you can see we've already manage to built our pilar for foundation it's 0.4 m deep and the diameter of our tubular steel is 2 which suits to our panel. We also built our suporting panel for solar panel which compose of angle bar and flat bar.

We also finished to welding our enclosure box which our components like MPPT charge controller, inverter, battery and other components are inside. It's such a heavy workload but still we manage to make some progress.

I am quite active on doing such task since I want to finish our project as much as possible since we ened to study and test if the prototype is working or not cause once if there's malfunction, we have still time to fix it and also it's better to finish the whole prototype since we also need to fix our paper.

By the way, yesterday we do not much since the heavy rain falls, I am worried since our cement is still not dry but yesterday we still work under the droplet of rain and we cement the entire layer of our elevation, I cover it with plastic so that the rain won't enter at newly applied cement, it rains heavy last evening and I'm hoping that the cement didn't crumble.
