Pool pump keeps switching off

Postby fyfin » Thu Jul 08, 2021 10:17 am

The red switch keeps popping out but nothing else trips so I'm wondering if it's just a switch that it needs a replacement. It does seems very sensitive, if I just touch it gently it comes out. I don't want to tape it down in case it is an electrical cut out although when we had a problem before it was the trip switch that went.
These switches seem quite expensive and I'm struggling to find one here.

Update, I realised I was searching with the wrong ref, mistaking a 0 for an O. Found the same ref on Amazon but it doesn't quite look the same but I guess it will do the job. https://www.amazon.es/Gepc-sfk0j-Interr ... 01MUGZQ1M/

I'm still not sure if that is the problem though.

Problem solved, just reduced the sensitivity and all ok

I'm very surprised that you can't get one here, or it's equivalent, considering that there are probably millions of swimming pools ?
