[QUOTE="KenL, post: 482000, member: 31474"] Thanks for the replies. I was thinking the same about the rcd but cannot see why. I marked the live and neutral when i took the motor out to be tested ( by AES rewinds in Ash near Farnborough, they have had it running which is where i got the 7 amps run figure ) There is 230v at the incoming to the contactor and the neutral is ok. I have run the feed through a commando plug and socket and checked the wiring, twice. Can i replace the start stop switch with the contactor with a start stop NVR switch rated at 10 amp, i see that new contactors are quite expensive. Never rally gave it a thought when i was replacing them when working, just ordered them and fitted them. [/QUOTE]
