Building Wiring Fault light ON 110v CTE
I moved to a work place were they are providing 110v CTE (55v - 0v - 55v), I never seen this before...
I just realize it was happening when I saw Building Wiring Fault light ON, I check voltages at all power outlet and I found this 110v configuration (55v - 0v - 55v)
It's safe for computers and server work with this kind of power setup?
Hot - Neutral = 110v
Hot - Ground = 55v
Neutral - Ground = 55v

Hi Robert,
As much as possible, our product should be used on an environment that follows safety electrical codes and regulations. The building wiring fault light lit up because it has detected an improper wiring from the power source where it is attached. If the SWF/BWF is lit up, the surge protection capability of the product reduces hence the product that is attached on the unit is vulnerable to failure.
