004 - Station Electrical Current Too High
Figure 145: Warning 004-Current Upper Limit
The measured current upper limit value of electrical current is
greater than the established limits. The warning lists the station
number (17) which was on at the time of the upper limit
violation, the Master Valve (MV1) and/or PUMP, as well as the
measured electrical current in amps (.4). The current reading is
the total or sum of all outputs which are on, including any
Master Valve or Pump. Upon detection of this condition, the
controller automatically terminates irrigation on the station and
advances to the next station in the program. Condemned stations
will not irrigate until the warning has been cleared.
Action:
Step 1 Check field wiring for:
a. Faulty solenoid
b. Field wiring which is exposed and submerged in
water
c. Station to earth ground and/or common
resistance path
d. Improper station limits
Step 2 If station limits are suspected, manually turn each
station on and observe the measured amperage
(electrical current) in the display area I=X.XX. To
assist in the isolation of the faulty station, refer to
Multi-Station Diagnostics procedure.
Step 3 Compare the amperage reading with the limit setting
to insure that adequate margin exits (typical: 20%
over nominal).
