Chapter 6 - Troubleshooting
Circuit breakers keep tripping.
First: If this is a new installation, does it meet the requirements
outlined under Electrical Requirements on Page 34? If not, you
may be tripping a building circuit breaker because your supply line
is inadequate. Call your local electrician and have the correct line
installed.
Second: Is there any consistent pattern to when the circuit
breaker trips? For example, does it happen only when you are using
cooling? This can give you a clue as to where in the ICU the
problem lies. Examine the components and wiring associated with
that system and look for loose connections, worn or damaged
wiring, etc.
Third: Is your area subject to power surges or wide variations in
the incoming power supply? If this is the case, you may want to
consider the installation of a power conditioner.
Fourth: If these actions do not resolve the problem, call SSCI
Customer Service at (800) 323-7366, or a qualified electrician.
