Hi All...
First time poster, long time lurker. Hoping someone can answer this bizarreness...
I installed an FV series inline fan. EVERYTHING WORKS... Let me repeat - everything is working.
But - i'm getting continuity between the Hot and the Ground at the switch. I can disconnect the Hot and power the fan with just the Ground and Neutral or just the Hot and Neutral with ground disconnected.
Isn't this a classic Ground Fault/short circuit that should result in a blown fuse, sparks, lots of cursing, etc.??? None of this is happening. It works. No blown fuses, all the other switches on the same circuit are fine, etc.
I don't want to finish this up with a hot ground (which seems to be what i have here), of course - so I'm trying to figure out what the heck is going on. Why hasn't stuff blown up?
Thanks in advance!
