Hi all,
I'm from University of Leicester Racing from the UK 2016. I’ve got a query regarding the below rule:
_______

EV3.4.6i – Covers and Lids must be fastened with a minimum of 1 fastener for each vertical perimeter wall per section.
_______

We’ve got 3 sections in our container (2 for batteries, 1 for the AIRs/Fuse), meaning 6 vertical walls and are planning to cover all sections with a single lid. We wanted to wanted to have a total of 4 latches – one on each of the external walls – however we’re not sure if rule EV3.4.6i means that we would somehow need to have a latch for the internal walls (which are only around 75% of the height of the external walls).

Thanks
Parthil
