Maybe I'm worrying too much, but my DIY control panel kit from Kal didn't include relay covers. What covers are recommended?

My concern? Over time, somehow a wire will interfere with the relay. Having the relay covered omits the concern.

Thanks.

I have thought of the same thing while building my 30A controller.

1. The relays will be in a locked box.
2. Use lots of wire management tabs/zip ties!!!!
3. I made up my controller.... shut it for a few weeks the opened it up to see if anything moved. Nothing did and I felt alot better.

The covers are not needed - most sellers do not include any.
