Overcurrent message

  • Good Morning. I recently installed an RC SNUBBER on a shelly 4 pm pro that goes to multi-use and wet-use circuits.

    I have the following problem: when I connect the vacuum cleaner, it does not matter the plug and also the Circuit to which it was connected (wet uses and various uses) I get the following message on the Shelly 4 pm pro.

    OVERCURRENT

    I understand that RC SNUBBER is a filter for voltage spikes as you indicate and in the shelly 4pm instructions it proposes that if you are going to use a vacuum cleaner or induction motor you must use one. I have it installed as indicated. Between the neutral and the output of the shelly

    How could I solve that problem? Thanks.

    I attach photos of the installation in which said message is seen.

  • It is very unlikely that the snubber is causing the over current issue. Did you configure an overcurrent limit and, if so, in which amount?

    And by the way: Welcome to the forum!

  • hello ruvigo,

    were you able to solve your problem?

    I have a similar problem with a cistern pump.

    The shelly goes into "overcurrent" very often, but not always.

    The maximum power consumption at start-up is 1400 watts.

    I have set the max power protection in the shelly itself to the highest value, which is 4480 watts, far from the 1400 watts of the pump.

    I am currently at a bit of a loss and would be grateful for any useful tips.

    Cheers

    Daniel
