possible explanation Explanation: The 'disconnect' is puzzling. I'm inclined to place it together with ''fuses in dryer stations 1-6' to mean the switchbox or fuse panel for the dryer stations. As for 'enclosure fault', that's a fault condition generated by a switch (possibly driving a latching relay or actuating some sort of electronic status) that detects whether the enclosure has been opened. Quite common these days in PCs to detect tampering, but probably used here as a safety measure (shut down the equipment if the enclosure is open). |

See explanation below... Explanation: 1) First of all, I think again this is a case of missing punctuation; I would imagine the sentence should really read: "Check AC drive breaker and fuses in dryer station 1-6, (and check for a possible) disconnect enclosure fault." 2) I think you'll find they are talking about a safety circuit that 'disconnects the power when the protective enclosure is opened' --- this would be typical techie shorthand for that sort of expression. In which case, you would need to "check for a fault in the safety circuit that disconnects the power if the enclosure is opened" Other interpretations are undoubtedly possible, but I'll bet this is fundamentally what it means. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 29 mins (2005-11-03 11:42:30 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Another possible interpretation could be that there might be a fault in the 'enclosure (safety circuit)', and so you'd need to disconnect the faulty circuit to isolate another potential problem it might be masking. However, given the way it is phrased, I think this is a much less plausible interpretation. |

a long shot.... Explanation: the previous sentence has already dealt with possible causes (for the absence of supply power) due to normal controle elements (safety switches and stuff), and this sentence deals with other safeties that may have cut the power; along that line of reasoning this could be interpreted as: check breaker and fuses 1-6 for possible *interruptions* (interruption being a disconnection and also a fault/malfunction, enclosure is a bit funny but could refer to something like internal) I wonder waht the others think of this? |
