So I'm hoping to pick the collective brains trust to deal with a non entertianment issue.
I have what is effectively a system of panic buttons deployed on a site using a commercial alarm panel. It is false alarming.
The inputs of that panel are a voltage ADC, so a change on the voltage on the sense wire will trigger an alarm condition.
So would any of these be likely to induce a full volt or thereabouts?
- Running in the same cable tray as multiple (probably half a dozen) 50A 1ph sub mains, separation of roughly 400mm, parallel for probably 40 metres
- Those sub mains feed inverter air conditioners along the way, so I expect harmonics
- Those sub mains also feed hot water heaters - do water heaters have inrush currents worth discussing?
Entire mains is fed offf a generator power plant - a series of 800kVA Aggrekos conjoined properly.
Alarm wiring is using Cat5 but is not balanced.
Anything that would be helpful to clarify, just ask...
