    Long story short multiply the gapping center to center times the shrinkage of whatever offset angle you are using, so 2 inch spacing with 30° offsets would have you advancing each mark a half inch on every pipe for your starting point. 🤘

    Great video, however I have a suggestion. Use a digital protractor on the long side of the pipe , zero it, than after your first bend test the bent end for 30 degrees. Also note the spring back and write it down for the next guy. For example you might have to bend a 33 degree bend for a perfect 30. Thank you for your video.

    I have 4 mixer motors at a WWTF. I have had to turn the yellow amp adjustment from 8 to 14 amps to keep them running with out tripping. 1 of of them however now runs for 1-3 mins then trips everytime. Pulled and megged motor. It is good. Voltage is good and consistent with other mixer motors. I have not seen Amps above 7 on anyof the motors including the one tripping. Any suggestions? Going in circles with Evoqua. Plant is 1 year old. All ran good first 6 months then developed issues after that.

    You're using 10amps for VFD and motor control yet say that 10amp relay not to be used with anything requiring a load? 10amp is the common rating for general residential use, lights and power points, here in Australia.

    • @AccessToPower
      @AccessToPower 3 месяца назад

      The 10 amp relay is being used to on the control circuit of the VFD… not the motor circuit. The current on the control for a start signal is measured in milliamps.

    I always teach to only swap A & C phase to reverse the phase rotation. This prevents accidentally burning stuff up in the rare time one may have to deal with the high leg on a 120/240 3 phase feed. (Code here is the high leg must be on B Phase)

    • @AccessToPower
      @AccessToPower 3 месяца назад

      That is a good idea. Especially if the control voltage is 240 volt delta. But it is a good practice to teach newbies as it eliminates possibly making a mistake when the voltage, or high leg information is not understood or known. And yes, High Leg is most often on B Phase in the field... but there are some utilities that provide the high leg on C phase and it must be switched after the MSB to B phase on all Panelboards, and MCC's. This too can be a bit confusing and cause people to make mistakes. Thanks for your comments and sharing your best practices with the community.
