I will find out the status of modifying power distribution box and let you know. For powering the 3400 and 1500 pumps together, can I "borrow" the outlet for the cold head compressor to power the extra pump? Does the interlock care about that? I'll be working
at ESB after 2:30 this afternoon for some cabling issues.</div>

There is one interlock that checks the compressor which is labeled at its inlet connector as "cryo-compressor", I'm not sure if that is the compressor that you're referring to. If this is the same compressor, we could try to find a way to force a clear input
by wiring the input connector and proceed with the test.</div>

I cannot answer about using the compressor outlet for the vacuum pump since I do not know electrical specifications required, this might be answered better by Donal Williams or another involved person working on the modifications for the power distribution.</div>
