See why system tripped.
If system is operational, switch on main power
supply.
Current ahead of fuse, but not on contactor
side.

Over current thermal relay tripped.
Motor temperature thermostat tripped.
Anti-freeze security tripped.
Discharge pressure too high.
a) Voltage too low.
b) Cooling demand too high, or condensing
temperature too high.
Not enough cooling fluid.
Water flow to evaporator too low.
See instructions for “discharge pressure high”.
a) Contact Power Supply Utility.
c) See instruction “discharge pressure too
high”.
Repair leak. Add refrigerant.
Check water flow rate, and pressure switch
contact in water.
C) Compressor stops just after its start
