Intermittent Insulation Fault / Loose Terminal
Likely causes
Wire insulation softening from heat
Check: Inspect and re-tighten all electrical terminals
What to do: Inspect and re-tighten all electrical terminals → Check wiring for heat damage (charring, discoloration) → Monitor current during operation to catch overcurrent moment → Use thermal camera to identify hot spots → Replace terminals/wiring then measure insulation resistance
Arcing from loose terminals
Check: Check wiring for heat damage (charring, discoloration)
What to do: Check wiring for heat damage (charring, discoloration) → Monitor current during operation to catch overcurrent moment → Use thermal camera to identify hot spots → Replace terminals/wiring then measure insulation resistance
Insulation degradation from component aging
Check: Monitor current during operation to catch overcurrent moment
What to do: Monitor current during operation to catch overcurrent moment → Use thermal camera to identify hot spots → Replace terminals/wiring then measure insulation resistance
Intermittent tripping from insulation degrading with heat or loose terminals. Tighten all terminals and check insulation. Intermittent tripping can lead to fire. Inspect promptly.
