My thoughts exactly. And what’s the earthed metal cage over the meter for? I’d be more worried about the looped service , but what do I knowWho put them there? Why?
Good point. Perhaps he's trying to block the RF to stop it reporting readings.My thoughts exactly. And what’s the earthed metal cage over the meter for? I’d be more worried about the looped service , but what do I know
Tin foil hat anyoneI have never seen ferrites on meter tails before, did you see the croc clip earth on the faraday cage as well, I smell a conspiracy theory going on here.
Nice bit of bending work on the faraday cage though.
That's interesting.Regardless of the reason for installing, a ferrite ring has to be chosen for current so it doesn't saturate. Overloaded bead will have harmonics in the magnetism and buzz even if the current is pure 50 Hz.
Yeah made it myselfIs that a home made Faraday cage over the meter?
Stainless mesh 82Yeah made it myself
Who put them there? Why?
It’s worked! The WAN is completely redIs that a home made Faraday cage over the meter?
I haven’t touched any of the wires. It was like this when I brought the house. It makes random buzzing noises I thought by installing Ferrite cores the noise would go away? But it didn’t unfortunately..My thoughts exactly. And what’s the earthed metal cage over the meter for? I’d be more worried about the looped service , but what do I know
Is it possible to install some kind of a power line filter or something? I’ve looked around and majority are three phase for commercial purposes? I don’t know what to do tbh kind of scaredIf there is a buzzing noise then it suggests that some harmonics may be present on the mains supply
Yeah. Made it myself using stainless steel mesh 82 to be precise thought the buzzing sound would go away since I thought it was an EMI issueIs that a home made Faraday cage over the meter?
I did. To eliminate noise but it sadly didn’t workWho put them there? Why?
Another thing to add. Before adding the ferrite cores. Was sitting there taking my time and using my common sense. After like half hour. Kind of blacked out almost? Got up and layed on the couch. Is this normal? Felt sick too? Is there too much EMI leakage here?Suggestion;
1 Remove everything you've added.
2 Have a local spark in to check it's all safe.
3 Stop messing with it.
4 Stop worrying.
