A mate of mine owns several stable blocks,each powered off a generator,now I've wired all of these and he won't let anyone else near them,which is nice as I know exactly where I'm up to when he wants any work done on them.Anyway he rang up yesterday and wanted a floodlight on the paddock for winter,he'd picked up some floodlights and wanted to know if they were suitable,so last night I went down as it was going dark the idea being to plug one of these lights in and get an idea if they would do the job.Connected one up and it wouldn't strike,tried another and it was the same,checked the supply and was getting around 200 volts,he was adamant it couldn't be the genny as it was just over a year old and hardly gets used in summer.I checked it and found the speed adjusting screw had worked loose so the motor wasn't running at the correct speed.Job done lights strike up happy days then he turns around "oh so the genny not running right may explain why my lowbays kept going on and off".Funny how some people don't mention something's wrong untill you find it for yourself.
