🛠️ Our Compressor High Current Troubleshooting Services in KL
🔍 Electrical Load Testing
We use clamp meters and multimeters to assess amp draw, voltage supply, and phase balance during compressor startup and operation.
⚡ Capacitor, Contactor & Relay Inspection
Faulty start or run components can cause excess current. We test and replace damaged capacitors and relays to restore proper function.
🔧 Compressor Motor Resistance Testing
We check compressor windings for shorts, open circuits, or grounding issues that could lead to high current draw.
💨 Refrigerant & Pressure Diagnostics
Incorrect refrigerant levels or high head pressure can overload the compressor—we inspect and correct system charge and airflow.
🧰 Mechanical Inspection for Binding or Seizure
We evaluate for locked rotors, internal wear, or lubrication failure that could cause the motor to overwork and overheat.
📋 System Optimization & Final Testing
Once the issue is resolved, we test current draw under normal load to verify restored electrical efficiency and safe compressor operation.
