I have a CHHC-1 controller that keeps tripping its internal breaker (15A). I have a Santa Fe DH (6.5A), water pump for CO2 unit (<2A), and a contactor to run the A/C (.1A) This shuts down the whole controller and I loose AC, DH and Co2
So in total I am around 8-9 amps.
I put a clamp meter on the hot wire feeding the controller and got 9.xx amps. seemed a little high because I dont think the CO2 was running. But even then, I should have been at 11A.
It seemed to shut off when the A/C came on so I figured something was wrong. The A/C outlet is only powering a contactor/relay. The contactor works fine when plugged into a regular A/C outlet
So I took another controller which was removed from another op I just shut down. COntroller was working fine for over a year. This controller seems to be doing the same thing.
Heres the kicker. I am running two rooms exactly the same. Same controller, same DH, same pumps for Co2, yet one room has issues with 2 controllers, while the other is fine
Any ideas?
