I posted a version of this question prior to the server crash and thought my problem was a bad converter but I got a new converter and still have the same issue so I’m posting again.
I'm trying to install a led halo light on my PM932 mill. I picked up the AC/DC converter below from amazon and wired the 24VAC inputs one directly from the tap off the 24V side of the transformer and one from the protected side of the breaker fed from the same source. Both showed approximately 24V AC on my meter with the mill power switch off. With the mill power switch on they both read approximately 20V AC.
Where I'm having the problem is that on the output terminals of the converter I am reading zero DC voltage. My assumption is that I had a bad converter so I ordered another converter from a separate source and still have the same result. I’ve double checked all the connections and even pulled both inputs directly from the transformer tap (#31) in case the breaker was causing an issue.
I’m doubtful that I got two bad converters and I’ve rechecked everything with a separate multimeter so I’ve come to the conclusion that it must be user error. Any help will be greatly appectiated - I don’t won’t to throw in the towel on this “simple” project but I’m ready to get me mill back together.
Thanks,
Mark
