    Looking for a flourescent tube.

    H,I I didn't get email notifications for some reason! its for inside a cheap blasting cabinet, I thought it would be easier to replace the bulb as flourescent light units don't normally come as rated for use in a blasting cabinet! i bought a cheap led torch with a magnet and stuck it on the...

    Electric Shock

    Morning, had an electric shock at work, had a few before but not like this. Machinery casing fault caused me to touch a single phase with my hand, my other hand was touching earthed conduit, so the fault current went straight across me. completely different league to just touching a live and...

    Anyone got a Fluke 101

    Thanks, Fluke replied within a few minutes, I was expecting to wait a week or so! They don't know if it has got a backlight, lso a model only sold in Asia apparently.

    Motor Config

    Those 1PH - 3PH VFD's are a godsend for running industrial machines on a single phase supply! In your Carding Line example, is it the VFD or the motor that's providing the speed signal to control the VFD for the other motors?

    Shower light on when shower not on?

    I see, the pipe enters within the shower, there is only around an inch of pipe from where it comes out of the wall to where the plastic shower connector fits over it. I did check this for condensation and there was nothing, although the shower hadn't been used since the previous night.

    Shower light on when shower not on?

    Yeah, after leaving it all day the micro-switch had increased to 5.5 Mohm. The supply pipe is copper. What do you you mean about the entry still being open?

    Probably worth taking pictures if you do the work for any legal problems!

    Shower light on when shower not on?

    Just looked at it, there is condensation on one of the micro-switches that switches between the different elements. An IR test of that micro-switch was 3 Mohm, the other three micro-switches were all 13+Mohm. I'll leave it until tonight and check the resistance again. Not sure why the...

    Shower light on when shower not on?

    Thats what I was assuming, seeing as it is like it before the shower is used but after use it had presumably made enough heat to evaporate the water.

    Shower light on when shower not on?

    I don't think it's either as I've only noticed it before I use the shower, after use it doesn't do it.

    Shower light on when shower not on?

    It's the light inside the shower, it's only just started doing it.

    Shower light on when shower not on?

    Hi, I've noticed my shower power light is on when the shower isn't in use, it's no-where near as bright, quite dim but flickering. After this shower has been used it doesn't happen. I have a couple of ideas, but would appreciate thoughts. Thanks.

    Help with wiring up a contactor and stop switch to a VFD

    Ok, fair enough. I thought I posted about using a separate switch in the end to isolate, but obviously not. The alternative is to use the existing 400v three phase output on the machine which is controlled by the existing safety switches. You said you can't just disconnect a VFD though...

    Help with wiring up a contactor and stop switch to a VFD

    Hi, To be more specific it's a 1hp motor on the vertical head of a milling machine, connected to the spindle. So it would control a rotating cutter. It doesn't control the table drive or the horizontal head. The purpose of the contactor would be to isolate the motor to change cutting tools...
