    Loss of Economy 7.

    That installation needs some urgent work. Do I spy a voltage operated earth leakage detector? These were unreliable at the best of times and have been taken out of regulations for about the last 30 years.

    Inverter over-voltage fault

    The issue is physics, you are going to get about a 4 volt drop on that cable with 3kw. Your supply is at 250v ish, the inverter end will see about 254.5V ish. You have also mentioned 12Kw of solar so total site export of 15Kw??? What has the DNO authorised and what is the external loop impedance...

    UK 70TPS12 Thyristor - Help!

    A number of points. It needs a continous current of 100mA to hold it on,. 2. A motor has a comuninator in it, so the current is lumpy and so can drop below 100ma 3. You need to arrange safe isolation between the 400V and your control circits. 4. 400V with that capacitor will kill you. 5. You...

    News Electrical sub station near heathrow airport 'blows up'? - possible russians?

    Ok, it was a 275KV to 66 KV transformer on a twin transformer site. This provides power to one corner of Heathrow. I am supprised that LHR did not seem to have or were unable to have switching operations to take power from their other feeders. For details on the North Hyde grid supply point...

    Try using a wonder lead on a spike into the ground, measure the voltage between the spike and L N and E of the supply.

    What's the best way to ground a Jackery Explorer 2000 Pro power bank ?

    Earthing will make little to no difference. The 6m lead is acting as an antenna. Try this in a suitable box with the filter close to the power source. FN2020-16-06 | Schaffner, FN2020 16A 250 V ac/dc 400Hz, Chassis Mount EMI Filter, Fast-On, Single Phase | RS -...
