| mystery 240 volt baseboard problem i'm doing a side job right now and this lady has a baseboard heater that isn't working but apparently has in the past. i checked the lines coming in and and it showed 120 to ground on both wires and 0 between the two. i found the breaker that is feeding that heater (and likely others) and it was correctly placed in the panel on seperate phases. i opened up a few jb's trying to find where the wonky splice is and found nothing, but by the time i got back to the heater, it was on. i checked the voltage again and had 240. i didn't touch a thing. 10 minutes later the heater was off with 0 volts between the lines. that's the extent of it, havn't done any real troubleshooting yet, but i'll be back there in a week or so. any thoughts? thanks |
