Hi GCE it has been awhile since our chat.
This is an up date sorry that I took so long for that, it's a long story but this what we have found after our chat.
We have 800KVA transformer on the one side of the building with permission we had installed a new 315KVA transformer at the other end of this building going through a bus bar coupler in the new MLV room.
We extended our earth mat another 30 Meters of 70mm BCEW with an additional 4 earth spikes, remember we only had 6 Ohms Originally and the new earth we only managed to bring it down to 5 Ohms due to the bad soil.
And fluctuations was still there, so we went back to our original 800 KVA transformer and we found no fluctuations at all then our brains went into a flat spin.
NOW we we realised that our issue was only between the 315 KVA TRF via the MLVP and the GE UPS.
Then we found our fault because we were so close to another stand where they had their own municipal kiosk feeding a very old house and thier meter was mounted on the outside of the house, we complianced that meter panel and found that they had no earth at all coming from the municipality and the voltage between neutral and earth was very erratic but below 25 Volt, the went to the municipality kiosk and there again they no earth, so we twisted the Neutral and earth together on both side of their installation, and we went back to the GE UPS and at last we had found our GREMLIN and our Ohms reading was at last constant which was only reading our copper conductors..
We got in touch with the municipality electricity dept and a few days later they sorted out their earthing, and they were grateful that we had told them.
GCE like to thank you for all your encouragement.
And we would like to thank the person or people for this forum great help and keep up the informative work.
Wish all the guys on the Forum a MERRY CHRISTMAS and prosperous 2020.
Thank you
FRENCHIE.
