vgizzi OP8 posts@ vgizzi Your electrical panel may be an electrical fire hazard just waiting to happen. I strongly suggest you hire a licensed electrician to check it out. I also recommend you do not pull the panel cover off again until you do. Here are a few links for you to read: https://waypointinspection.com/issues-with-challenger-panels/ https://pennaelectric.com/electrician-blog/unsafe-outdated-electrical-panels/ https://inspectapedia.com/electric/Challenger_Electrical_Panels.php https://streamlineelectric.com/challenger-panels/ . |
Hey Guys - I live in miami so power surges are common as well as momentary cuts in power…sometimes power cuts last 15-60 seconds… ….so here’s what I’m thinking… Wall outlet to commercial grade Amazon sign-wave battery back-up. The meter on the backup tells me I’m never exceeding more than 20% of the units capacity. It’s already kicked in 3-4 times when the power “blinks” during storms. Then AQ Niagra 5000 into the battery back-up and then my components into the 5000…(waiting on the 5000 to arrive) I’ll let you know what I hear. My gear is all pretty new so as far as I can tell, it all sounds pretty quiet now. |
