*tapped. Taped is a different thing. In most cases I wouldn't have been so nitpicky but taping (marking wires) happens to be a thing in electrical as well, so it could cause real confusion in this case. 😉
i totally agree with you, with the voltage taps. i often go to a recently installed roof top unit, and its wired with the wrong voltage tap on the transformer. thats why the start up sheets are important (-: ha ha ha
I find that very common in commercial oftentimes goes on unchanged for years. I remembered in the real hot summers contacts for coils without close because it wouldn't get 24v it would drop to like 20 or 18v
I see this often. In fact, where I work we have 208 and every single unit had to be changed. You'll also see a primary tap for the higher voltages where you can select between 440, 460 or 480.
Definitely a common issue. Great information Steve-o
Thanks, Jason
It's wild how often we come across mis-taped transformers. Great info here.
Thanks! It is kinda crazy how much this happens when it’s so easy to correct.

😆 start up. Your lucky if they turn the disconnect and gas on 😂
Good find & good tips ... Thx
Thanks, Eddy
I used to find that all the time Steve.
It happens too often
Thats a very good check to do 👍👌
Yessir, thanks, John
Good catch
Thanks

It’s so easy to change and yet it seems like it never gets done.

It is a common issue.
common problem Steve.

Amen, my biggest pet peeve Steve O.
Thanks, Bryan, I’m with you brother
👍👍👍👀

Lower voltage = higher amp draw.
