Customer called for air conditioning not working and a tripped breaker. Upon inspection I found a melted line voltage wire to the compressor that melted into the common wire for the condenser fan motor. Removed damaged connector and repaired the broke fan wire. Tested the system upon completion. The amperage for the fan motor was at 1.1A rated for 1.5A this is high and the fan motor could fail in the near future. We did replace the capacitor this summer. Amperage for the compressor was 9.9A with an RLA of 17.9A. This is within the range it’s expected to work per manufacturer. System is operating properly at this time. Keep in mind that since both components wires touched and tripped the breaker they could have done some damage to the compressor or fan motor. This in turn could make either one fail sooner than later.
