Hello all,
I have a dual power supply to our front gate entry system. Unfortunately the power supply got wet due to a child with a hose and it stopped working. Being $100 per unit I decided to have a look to see if it was a simple case of a blown fuse, which I thought it was. So I replaced the fuse but when I turned it on it blew again, but this time I noticed a green disc capacitor had a small hole in it.
Now I cannot be 100% sure that the capacitor was also damaged before I put the new fuse in but I am having a hard time identifying this particular part.
The power supply has 240 Volts in and splits it to a 12 VAC and a 18VDC sides.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
