    Thanks for the input. We had thought about just such an option, but I am worried that the slip rings would be the most significant contributer to a resistance difference over time? The slew rates are fairly slow so if it hit a higher resistance area it would not pass through it quickly and may...

    There are around 60 slip rings total in the system for various purposes. The intended purpose of each is beyond the scope of this discussion. The area I'm concerned with is the AC power distribution. The loads are single phase. In this particular enclosure I have two 10A circuits available...
