I have a 25g IM lagoon tank. I tested for stray voltage in my system and I measure 48v! I think this is kind of high myself. I started to unplug equipment and check the voltage of each item and this is what I come up with.
Power strip (eqpt plugged in but switched off) = 4.6v
Return Pump = 18.3v
Cobalt heater 1 = 21v
Cobalt heater 2 = 21v
top off pump = 12v
MaxJet 1200 (reactors) = 20v
Yes, I know it doesn't add up but these are the voltages if I only plugged the single item and measured. If I plugged everything in at the same time it seems to settle at around 48v. If I turn off the MaxJet running my two reactors it drops to about 39v.
The MaxJet 1200's I have are the older Italian models. I have four of them, one is brand new in the box. I did a test in a bucket and measured each one separately and they all measure about 20v each.
Is this normal??? Ideas?? I see other stray voltage posts but never see a resolution.
Thanks,
Mike
