Reverse Polarity light on Scheiber panel

[leehadjiosif]

The reverse polarity panel light is on. This usually means that the hot and neutral wires are reversed so I reversed the hot and neutral wires on my dock power extension cord thinking it should solve the problem if the dock supply has reversed polarity. The RP light is still on. Anyone has any ideas?

The reverse polarity light on the Scheiber electrical panels are notoriously sensitive. A dim flickering light is very unlikely to be an issue. See jeanneau.proboards.com/thread/1440/reverse-polarity-warning-light

If you have any doubt about whether the panel is indicating incorrectly, or if you're having trouble deciding if it's just dim and flickering, you can buy a simple outlet tester like this one from Power Gear, at least in the US. I keep one on board since my panel doesn't have a polarity light. Based on the number of complaints about the Scheiber panels, maybe I'm lucky.
