Dishwasher shore power main breaker off #galley
|
Hello,
last time when connected to shore power I have used dishwasher and after one minute all the power went off. Including the shore power unit. This did not happened when running air conditioning or washing machine. Interesting enough I have turned on generator put the power on and dishwasher was running without interruption. Power was on all the time. Next time I tried again and shore power went off, again generator ok. Before going in to deep investigation is there any idea on the forum what might be the issue? Grounding is one that comes to my mind than you.. -- Slavko SM 2000 #279

This is a very common issue. The water heating element needs replacing and as far as I know, there are none available. Another owner stated he was going to have one made in Hong Kong where his SM is located. Possibly he will answer this.

The Shore Power Ground Fault Interrupt is much more sensitive than the GFI main breaker on your SM. And the dishwasher will heat water until it gets hot enough to open small cracks in the heating element that will be present in any heating element this age.

Is the shore power 50 or 60 htz? (you do not state where you are located)
