[RE-wrenches] wrenches] Husqvarna 5500 andVFX3524Compatibilityquestion

Jay,

 

One leg is called Phase here, this is the hot leg.

 

The other is Neutral and is bonded to ground at every main distribution
board.

 

In theory one cannot get bitten coming into contact with the Neutral but
this can happen if there is poor earthing, or a poor connection on the
Neutral return.

Hi Carl,

 

thanks and yes, I think its why they only did a 120v version here.

 

Another question for you there.

 

Its my understanding that neither of your legs is bonded to ground correct?

Hi Jay,

 

Yes you have described our grid waveform correctly.

 

It is strange to me that they call yours 240V, the rationale used to
describe yours and mine are different I guess.

 

Your grid seems to present less volts and more current.

 

If this is correct then I am guessing that the transformers used in the
units here will not work for you.

Hi Carl,

 

Your 230vac is a single wave form right?

 RMS peak to zero crossing of 230v

 

vs our

 

240vac which is 2 phase wave form

RMS peak to zero crossing of 120v 

 

Have I got this right?

 

thanks,

jay

Carl,   NZ is 240 VAC right ?   240 VAC 2 wire ?

I think that the problem may have to do with leg to leg voltage cross
regulation
imbalance in 120/240 3 wire systems.

Goodness knows why 240V Sunny Island's are unavailable in the US.

 

We have been installing these in NZ for years !!!
