On the SJ cord install, that gets to me also, even if it is SJ cord you are running, I always put it in conduit! I had taken over a local sandwich place and was in the process of fixing all of the open wires, etc. as I came across them, they found someone that told them they could do their work at a lot lower rate (this guy went to all of my business and told them that) He has since left the industry, he burnt down their Deli! It was determined the fire started from an open wire ran through a stainless steel hole with no grommet or conduit. This same guy caught a house on fire and now we have to run rigid gas pipe to the inside of all furnaces, residential and commercial in that jurisdiction and took out several rooftop package air conditioners at another customer I was servicing, cost that one about $85 Grand to replace multiple units on one building.

reminds me of a produce stand, it was a fairly big building, & this would be like over 35 years ago, 75% or more of the wiring directly from breaker box was 16 gauge orange extension cords, yes, orange to the breakers, they had junction boxes on roof, where they used wire nuts to attach other orange cords, but everywhere was orange, to drink machine, fans, all over, just stapled to roof, as a young man they kept trying to talk me into coming to work for them, but I refused, the place scared me, lol, but 1 night place burned to ground, they lost everything, people were so upset, I shrugged my shoulders, thinking it was long past due, as even at my young age I knew a lot about electricity, & knew 99.5% of stuff inside should have never been there, maybe a table top fridge plugged into or microwave, but not for equipment! nor hardwired to a breaker.

We had a Cold Zone Rack go down for the same reason. Condenser fan motors blowing fuses. Two technicians before me replaced the fan motors, one at a time, but the unit tripped again. I went in and ripped out all the wiring to the condenser fan motor and found the tiniest break in the insulation and replaced it all the way to the motor. Let's see it chafe on seal tight conduit.

In Canada, we call that flex. Conduit is rigid pipe. One thing I would have done is megger the motor to determine if the windings were indeed the cause of the fuse failure. Was the fuse the right size and type? Often someone will just slap any fuse they have rolling around in the truck. There is such a thing as fuse fatigue and it may have just been the fuse.

If you run a fuse really close to its rating (so it's pretty much always warm) they tend to age and eventually blow even though nothing is wrong. Although it's probably a lot more likely in gear like this that something is actually wrong, it doesn't necessarily have to be.

My father and I are in auto repair, and he's seen a few classic cars that have blown a fuse for no good reason (he went looking for a good reason, and didn't find anything wrong). I'm talking cars old enough that they use glass fuses. Every single time it was a fast-blow fuse of 5 amps or under. With glass fuses that are under 5 amps, the fuse wire is about as thick as a coarse hair off your head. After the third one he encountered, he came up with a theory. "It must be the vibration", he said. That's the only reasonable cause either of us could come up with for a glass fuse to fail without an electrical overload. Just one too many bumps in the road bending that hair-thin fuse wire, and eventually it snapped due to metal fatigue. I think that's one of the reasons other than cost that newer cars switched to the blade fuses (ATO, ATM, etc.). The fuse element in them is probably made of a different alloy that allows the manufacturers to make the fuse element thicker so it's mechanically stronger but still fails at the same amperage. The fuse element is also much shorter than in those glass fuses, so there's less length to get vibrating in the first place. Now whenever we get a classic car with blown fuses, we replace the glass fuse that blew with a sand-filled ceramic fuse (after finding the problem of course). I know, those are usually for high voltage AC so that the fuse can quench an arc and not explode, but for our use case the idea is that the sand acts to prevent the fuse wire from vibrating and subsequently failing due to metal fatigue.

Hello, if I understand your situation, I also dedicate myself to refrigeration. I have been working with cold room equipment for 30 years, just like you. That is why I like to see your channel a lot because I learn many things apart from knowing the equipment there in the United States. Yes they are something special and sometimes one gets into trouble for wanting to help some clients but I have run into problems similar to what I saw in this video with a problem with cables that come in very small conduit and many cables and occasionally here in Mexico I found a team that was a mess with the cables So I had to redo it even when I see that there is a very small register box I know there are problems because mostly when they all come it's a conduit that comes with all the cables of all the fans and sometimes the register the cable is not registered if it goes in and out and the cables are all wrinkled rolled up and not well fit o Well in the end The important thing is to always give the solution to the client and help him but sometimes clients do not see the conditions that the team gives you they just want the team to work only that and I see your video and I see in the situation that is there they are experiences that are being learned every day I have always said that refrigeration has no limits for learning Day after day we are learning something new each team each brand is a new experience for example here in Mexico this work with the danfoss and bohn brand and they are many problems that I have had with equipment that had factory problems come the warranty process is not so fast So the customer wants the equipment to work, that is, he pressures it to work So my friend, you go ahead with the patience and humility is what does not make each day bigger and observation is very important observation because remember that many of the many of The failures of the refrigeration equipment I have because sometimes we do not observe well the equipment, even much of the answer to solve the problem is found by carefully observing the equipment. have a great night Greetings from Mexico

I want to share an experience I had with an hvac tech. I'm a maintenance supervisor at a huge warehouse I think I mentioned it before. Anyways the building was brand new and the breakroom was not cooling. I called the hvac company and I was kinda shadowing the guy up on the roof cause I'm a curious person and like to learn this stuff. I asked him if he cared and he said it was good. I ended helping him in the long run. So he pull off the panel and man the first thing I saw was this wire stretched out across the whole unit and running somewhere I couldn't see. I'm talking about you can play the guitar on this wire. This tech was looking at the electronic stuff and ignoring this wire. I finally said something after he said he couldn't find anything wrong. He told me he installed the unit and that wire was going to something that I can't remember but it was fine and he ran it like that because he didn't have enough wire. He just left it and didn't fix it. The problem ended up being someone messed with the thermostat and had it set for timeouts. I know now that when the warranty is up I'll probably go up there and fix that because it drives me crazy. Thx for the video guy I learn from every one and that's valuable to me. I'm currently in a pinch right now or I would have ordered some merchandise by now. My wife just left me after 15 years for pretty much no reason that I can see. She just needs to find herself she says. So next paycheck I'll get something lol. Sorry for the long story.😁

Just have to say, I re-entered the HVAC trade recently, and I found your channel probably months ago as I was transitioning from my old job back into my current job, doing residential HVAC. I like your thought process, and I sure do follow that train of thought of looking at everything. "It could be that one little thing you didn't check that made you look like the hero or the zero in front of the customer" was something one of my old bosses said to me, and it stuck. Keep it up! I appreciate you spilling knowledge and wisdom out. It makes me wonder if I could transition into refrigeration and be able to run calls proficiently like you do. Time will tell. Still gotta build the toolkit out for me.

Hypothesizing, on this one. The old motor was grounded directly to the conduit, when the wire blew it would have taken the path of least resistance which would have been via the motor casing and possibly the wingdings inside, creating a voltage spike which could have over amped the motor or created a direct short, not knowing how this unit is wired, just guessing. When that conduit burnt through though that would have been a brief direct short to ground that cleared its self when the wire and conduit burnt enough to break contact, hence why you didn't find an obvious ground short.

@@throttlebottle5906 : I worked for a public electric utility for many, many years. If you are paying for 208 volts, that is what you should be getting. Equipment today barely meets specs on what they are providing, and Breakers, fuses, wiring, etc. barely meet specs for the load they are carrying. If you are getting low voltage now, it will be much worse when summer time comes and power factor takes its toll. As loads increase it will drop even more. It is kind of log rhythmic until it reaches failure. Utilities in that area seem to constantly have voltage on the low side.

Just because a capacitor tests good with no power, it doesn't mean it's good. For that you need an ESR meter. Basically an old capacitor can turn into a resistor only when a large voltage is applied. Just saying in case it helps you troubleshooting in the future.

Armour cable wire running into a junction box, conduit is rigid pipe when the NEC code requires it, but most Refrigeration and Armour wire is used in a switch gear disconnected, and what you working on. You founded the problem a hole and a broken wire. Like you well stated the thermal over load kick in, because the condenser ran motor was not running, and high head pressure build up in the system high side, and high pressure cut out engage the thermal over load and opened the compressor circuit to shut it off.

@EnderMalcolm
@EnderMalcolm 4 жыл бұрын
That's exactly the point. The breaker is so that if there is a super bad short, it can actually cut power before the fuse even blows. At the same time, a bad fan motor could pop a fuse and not a breaker if something went wrong. The breaker also helps you by de-energizing the circuit. You wouldn't want to pull a live fuse to turn off a motor. In this case it looks like they have an oversized breaker being used as a switch, and then a fuse to actually regulate the motor if it shorted. Looks like a slow-blow fuse, since it doesn't instantly pop from the inrush current of turning the motor on, but if it were to dead short for more than a second that fuse would probably explode. That happened to me in one of my tesla coils. Something went wrong, the coil arced to the circuit board, and the fuse had so much voltage pumped into it that there was only glass dust remaining.

I am the furthest thing from perfect, the big picture diagnoses idea is just what I try to follow so I motivate myself. I'm constantly wanting to take short cuts, and when I do they usually bite me in the ass. But I totally realize I am not perfect whatsoever!!

pomonabill220 wish more people would think about the whole picture stuff. Been doing this a long time and most techs don’t. They want to get in and out leaving undiagnosed issues.

Would measuring continuity on the motor made your guess a lot more secure decision ? Or continuity is not a secure method?

you need a megohm/insulation tester to test breakdown voltage of them, not a regular DVOM in continuity

I gotta ask! I came across your videos randomly - But why is Parker Hannifin in your intro? What parts/affiliation do you have with them? :D This is just out of curiosity as i used to work for them and my dad is a Global key account manager for them :)

How is this outdoor rated? There is no sealing against water ingress. In Australia all external electrical installs are double insulated and seal against weather to maintain IP rating, definitely no insulation tape!

i always forget to ask.... why do you always quote for such small things? in so many videos ? nothing wrong with it... just not use to it... usually my clients never ask... some do i tell em verbally ''ballpark'' price.. i only quote on major installs or installs and yes sometimes we can't make everything pretty all at once due to timing either its late and your tired and you'll make a mistake rather than improving so if you have to come back and fix a few things here and there. heck we've all done it

You shouldn't have fixed the wire. You should have let it stay like that until it became a problem, then they would need to call you again and you would get paid more. I'm more into mechanic type work, but just a few months ago I was replacing a power steering pump and I noticed the vehicle had a bad coolant leak. I didn't fix it and I saw no reason to bring it up to the customer because if all goes well, I'll get to replace not only the radiator, but also an engine if it does enough damage. In this case, I got to replace the entire engine a month later. it NEVER pays to do preventative fixes.
