ah ok thanks scottyuk i will go to site and uprate the mcb today what do you think about the 32A mcb further back in the supply not being motor rated? occasionaly this is tripped aswell currently the motor is wired with 4mm cable which i believe is ok for appx 26amps thanks for the reply!!!
hi i have a single phase 2.2 kw motor with start run capacitors. we have just replaced this motor as the centrifugal switch was u/s on the old one. power is supplied to the motor through 2 contactors which are also new, and the 16A motor rated mcb has also been changed but the mcb still trips...
