A high current draw in your HVAC compressor is a serious electrical issue that can lead to overheating, frequent tripping, or total system failure. At EKG M & E Sdn Bhd, we specialize in diagnosing and fixing high current compressor problems in Kuala Lumpur (KL) for residential, commercial, and industrial cooling systems—preventing costly breakdowns and restoring energy-efficient performance.
Breaker trips or fuses blow when AC starts
Compressor hums but fails to start
Excessive power consumption and overheating
AC runs but cools poorly
Electrical components (capacitors, relays) burn out frequently
System shuts down under load
Electrical Load Testing
We use clamp meters and multimeters to assess amp draw, voltage supply, and phase balance during compressor startup and operation.
Capacitor, Contactor & Relay Inspection
Faulty start or run components can cause excess current. We test and replace damaged capacitors and relays to restore proper function.
Compressor Motor Resistance Testing
We check compressor windings for shorts, open circuits, or grounding issues that could lead to high current draw.
Refrigerant & Pressure Diagnostics
Incorrect refrigerant levels or high head pressure can overload the compressor—we inspect and correct system charge and airflow.
Mechanical Inspection for Binding or Seizure
We evaluate for locked rotors, internal wear, or lubrication failure that could cause the motor to overwork and overheat.
System Optimization & Final Testing
Once the issue is resolved, we test current draw under normal load to verify restored electrical efficiency and safe compressor operation.
