[QUOTE="Dairyspark, post: 527832, member: 19743"] Hi again, So back at the bank again today and I have another question for you all. Recently bought myself a Earth leakage clamp meter and decided to try it out today, imagine my shock and horror as I clamp the tails of one DB and find 4.2A of leakage apparently. So I switch off the board and it drops to 12mA. I then switch it back on and back to 4A it goes and when I switch off the other DB it drops down again. So when both boards are on it’s at 4A but when either board is off, individual DB’s are between 10-12mA….does that make sense and if yes can anyone explain why? [/QUOTE]
