Defeat dinos ... when UV sterilizer shocked me!

Edited to remove - there's an electrician in the house.

And everything you listed was bang on before removal. Nice work! You're hired lol...

So ... the broken quartz sleeve at the tip may have caused this.

I would have to get two of these to run in each outlet.

If it tripped, then unplug every outlet from the energy bar in the apex to find out what is tripping it correct?

also install a ground cable in the sump?

You could....well I would personally... depends how much draw you have on each power bar, don't want to overload them either.

As for probe in sump? I'll let one of the other folks here answer that one. I have no sump.

This is how it was when I bought the Aqua sterilizer from previous owner

Yikes, ya I would say it's likely. I am unfamiliar with your particular unit, does the lamp then just sit inside this sleeve and with it broken be exposed to water or condensation?

It raises my next question. The apex doesn’t alarm when there is a increase or decrease of amps ?

I constantly see the Volts and amps reading on the fusion but I never know how to tell what’s what.

I’m definitely getting a GFCI outlet from Amazon

The bulb sits in there

Then very likely the culprit, even a small amount of condensation when exposed to the electric components can wreak havoc.

Also do not plug a ground probe into your Apex power bar. Go directly to grounded wall outlet.

I'd normally say "Good Luck" but you've already used up your allotted quota of luck today!
