Ok a question before i replace this.
This power supply is being used for outside landscape lighting not for growing but i figure someone here may know about them.
So the lights all worked fine the last ti.e they were used my client went away for 6 months like every year and he had unplugged the system as he does every year.
When he got back to florida this season he plugged his lights in and nothing.
So were running 110vac into step down and expected 24vdc out put but my measured output is 55vac. And nothing works after that.
I figure the transformer has burned up something inside but running at 55vac did he fry all his leds? Is this fixable? As the client dont want to buy another transformer if his very expensive light fixtures are fuked.
Im trying to help a friend but im in canada and he in florida so im trying to walk him thru it over the phone so i cant just start replacing it with what might be in my service truck.
Also with the switch turned on or off if its still plugged in i read 55vac output constantly?
Is this a common breakdown for these transformers? Are the lights fuked? Any advise on how to determine if its worth replacing or maybe suggest an upgrade that will work with the hlg system?
Thanks everyone
