Hi,
We have a 2002 H356 which has recently developed an issue where all 230V breakers work (microwave, water heater, battery charger etc) except for the outlet sockets. As soon as the trip switch in the cabin is flicked to 'on', the main breaker in the lazarette trips as well as the shore power breaker even when there are no devices plugged into the sockets.
There appears to be 2 volts between live and neutral.
I've swapped trips to eliminate the switch itself, however the fault remains.
Looking through the manual (pg 63A-12) there is reference to the GFCI outlet (no idea what the GFCI stands for), which is the first main socket on the ring main which is in close proximity to the switch panel, if anyone can elaborate on the GFCI it would be helpful, because our just looks like a standard socket.
There are no issues on the DC side.
Any help / advice on fault finding would be most appreciated.
Many thanks,
Julian
