I was ask to look at a wiring problem that consist of many control wires for a 15 hp motor . Anytime the system is started it trips one or both of the control fuse on the primary side of the control trans instantly.. It is a 480v - 120v trans and the 120v fuse never blows it is always the primary fuse. At first i though it was a bad trans but i test the three push to test lights and they all work . As soon as i put the switch in start position it blows a fuse. I disconnected the motor from the starter when trying to start motor. Also i pushed in the starter manually and it still blew a fuse. It has a electrical remote reset and it works when pushed , that is before fuse blows. Any ideas? thanks for the help
