Hello Tad. I was working in the field and ran across a thermostat that the voltage on the R and Y was 16 volts, it also showed 16 volts in the air handler and 16 volts in the condenser. Testing the Red with green, and white register 27 volts. What could be causing the voltage drop? The contactor does not show voltage on the coils, but when testing the coil for ohm it shows 12.8 ohm and it also has continuity. What could be the problem? Thanks for your input.

Out of curiosity, if my AHU has no fuse (3 amp or 5amp) can I wire in a fuse between my transformer and my furnace board? If so, I have been thinking that if I am going to do this, should one side of the fuse be on the 24v hot from transformer and the other side my common from transformer? then from there to my board so that I have power in and out of that fuse? I couldn't find a video on how to do this. I have come across furnace boards/ahus without a fuse. cheers

Checked every wire run, ohmed every coil, unplugged the rev valve ect, everything checked good. Had my popper in, then removed and put in a new fuse. The ah was running while putting on the cover to the control wiring, installed the bottom screw of the cover, then while installing the top screw, the fuse blew. The the stat wire was routed behind the box, as i installed that top screw, the threads of the screw were penetrating cutting the insulation of the stat wires (still in the brown insulation).
