Furion 30 amp input failure!
No , not some electric burn up crisis.
I was starting my EMS install and it is better to disconnect the wires on the input jack and add a longer cable to that to reach the EMS box to avoid splicing in more wire on the line going through the TT wall studs. One wire compression fitting cross-threaded! I tried to retap the threads, looked at other tightening methods, no way to get it to work so I have to replace the TT 30 amp power input jack. The nice Furion one costs $65 on Amazon. Found a generic one for $16. That's the one I'm getting. Just a two day wait with Amazon Prime.
Stupid little non standard part really pissed me off.
