I think you have very serious electrical problem. Not necessarily Expensive to correct.
I would measure voltage Coming from meter, Check Panel Voltages, then check circuit voltages. Low voltage can burn up and destroy motors, pumps, lights, compressors. Its Just Dangerous.
Can you give more info? I live in US, never heard of 230 volt ceiling fan.
Would be more efficient at 230, just never heard of. |
From dewanjee:
Well, I live in Bangladesh. Does that make any sense to you?
In our country, the single phase supply voltage is rated as 220-230 VAC, 50 Hz.
To erase your confusion against different supply voltage against two different mail, let me explain. Actually, in one premises, two factories are there. One uses Govenment supplied power source which has fluctuation, unreliable & can come down to 190 VAC.The other factory, an ASU plant use their own generated power, so much reliable, steady, 230 VAC (p-n).
Now, light burnt in the earlier factory having low voltage problem & also having voltage fluctuation.
The fan burnt against the source supplied from the stady source.
So, . suggest how I can conclude? For the fluctuating source, can we use a voltage stabilizer (for office lighting, 5 storied buliding)? Would that be feasible?
We are looking for a failsafe solution against those type of fire hazards.
In case of lighting fire, eletromagnetic ballast was used. Upto what % of recommended voltage is safe to use against a ballast? We are confused as electronic ballast also failed though low voltage was there.
Do you need to know anything more?
Thanks,
