Taking work to the pub? Fair go, mate. How Australian is that? More
like the standard was going to press at 2:00pm on a Friday and they
pulled the number out of a hat - just to get to the pub!

But seriously though, if the US is running at 7mA and we use 30mA and
still see trips on refrigeration equipment, does it come down to our
dirty power that Roman already pointed out? Or is this simply due to
inherent operating characteristics of refrigeration equipment? I am
curious if they run refrigeration compressors through protected
circuits without nuisance trips in the US.

Cheers,

Sean
