Quote from: Tom Patterson on Yesterday at 05:34:23 PMThe challenge will be fitting it into the panel.They way I viewed it, the CD breaker would need to be mounted upside down because there is no space below the existing hole. (without rearranging the AC side of the panel)
Mine has a bit different layout but same issue -- I preferred to drill a second hole above the existing one and mount a standard two-handle-toggled breaker.
Quotethe GFCI on the light pole in the parking lot that trips when I plug the cord into the boat- regardless of whether the 30 amp breaker on the boat is on or off.So, could it be that the breaker is "leaking?" even in the off position (maybe thru the reverse polarity light)?
IIWMB, I'd
- completely disconnect the triplex shore cable at the panel to help isolate what segment the fault is in.
- Depending on the "answer" disconnect it at the boatside inlet. Maybe the smart plug is "leaking?"
Quotehoping I was just missing something simple and wouldn't have to go this route on the panel.Ha, that's a riot. Thank you. I needed that chuckle.
But no joy, you can't get away with that one. We all know that
- On a boat. ANY boat. There's NOTHING simple when troubleshooting.
- Before fixing or replacing ANYTHING, two other things will need to be done first.
