Welcome! I am a CA Grade 4 Wastewater Treatment Plant Operator and Chief Plant Operator. I also hold a CA D3 Drinking Water Distribution Operator Certificate and a CA T2 Drinking Water Treatment Plant Operator Certificate.
In this bonus episode we discuss troubleshooting using a Megger to find a short. I go into great detail about that in the introduction. I walked into the plant today and discovered a tripped Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) with an error code showing a phase short. Join me as I figure out where the problem is!
As a disclaimer, this is not a training video and you should never work with electricity unless properly trained!
