Bit of help ASAP.....Please!!

Thanks for your reply dickylad, makes sense in what your saying. But is strange that when the push button switch on the probe is pressed the contactor stays pulls in, but when the button isn't pressed the contactor goes on a mad one. Thought this would have worked the other way round..
As with the fusing i haven't yet, was unsure on wich fuses to get to be honest. I think the output side puts out less than 0.5 milli amps

What is the function of the push button on the probe? Is this in addition to the pedal switch on the floor or are they one and the same?

Hi,

I'm assuming the switch on the probe is a form of safety for the user. Foot pedal applies voltage to the probe and then the Switch on the probe transfer voltage to the turkeys. The probe sounds like it is causing the issue. Possibly a loose connection. Can't say for sure as I don't know what type of probe it is.

I hope you guy’s are taking in to account your “duty of care” to the operator, from the way this thread is going I think the Turkey’s are safer.

well i managed to buy a turkey (oven ready/partly cooked!!) but they are in short supply (the public are STUNNED!!!) is it all sorted now???

No offence intended but if you don't know what your doing should you be working on such equipment and high voltages?
