Re: Something went Bad Wrong!



not the loop,  only in reference to a good earth ground  :o)

((check how solid the ground is  by  inserting a diode in series with the
leg being checked  and ampmeter it to ground. NOTE  start with the hightest
range  on the meter and work down to the lowest..  Really hi current tells
me  its a really bad ground at the pump,  low current  says panel ground
slightly better than pump..))

Happy Holidays
