List,
The electrical installers at this site put all 42 current carrying conductors into one under slab pipe to supply power to the computers in our call center.
I realize harmonics can be a problem when non-linear loads are powered. My main question is, could our too frequent hard drive failures be occurring because extra harmonics are being added due to the installation? I can go to any outlet and measure 4-10 volts between the ground and neutral.
I also realize a catastrophic failure could occur here if there is a melt down of the wiring under the slab or if the 60% loaded dry type transformer fails.
Any help is appreciated.
