    ct clamps too close together?

    The phantom doorbell!.......

    I once fitted a door bell consitsting of a PP9 battery bell push and a transitorised buzzer, got called out to it 18 years later, not working due to bell push corrosion, and had to scrape the push again after another 8 years. How long would a modern fancy one last?

    ct clamps too close together?

    Well, Each one will be indepently deciding, I am pushing out too much, need to to turn down the wick. Depending on the control loop and the nature of the local load this could cause instablitlies. You might also want to check the local supply voltage to see if you are tripping on over voltage.
