PI EMS-PT50 Issue?
I have 2 EMS-PT50's. I full time and if one has to go back for warranty I put my spare in service. I will not EVER plug in without one. I have had both replaced under warranty since September 2016 due...

With a delayed click longer than the normal delay that sounds like a CG problem and since it happened on multiple pedestals the problem is in the CG distribution system common to all of the pedestals.
But normal operation and no LEDs suggests the unit failed. Perhaps an intermittent problem since it was OK at another park.
Perhaps there was some noise/transients etc on the power line that the unit could not handle.
Other than checking the original park power with voltmeters and scopes I'd wait to see if it fails again.
Maybe call PI and ask about plugging the 2 units in series and see what the LED show on the unit that displays?
The delay before the "click" was normal duration. I didn't actually time it, but it seemed to be pretty close to normal.
The park voltage showed nominal 120v on both legs with my spare unit.
After 8 days in service at my host site park the unit that had the LED issue is still working normally. With this problem only being present at one park I'm leaning toward them having an issue. Why not a problem with my spare unit? Who knows?
