Second time ive done that. I'm 100% installing my own switch with a stop button to kill the power!To get cables to go hot and smoke it will be drawing more than 30 amps so should have blown the fuse something isn’t right there we have not had any issues with 6 of theses reels , I would speak to Jordan Dont understand that it’s in a 30 amp fuse if wired up correctly it’ should blow that and never smoke or keep goingI will check fuse but I don’t see why it would blow if it doesn’t pull more than 30amps?They use two core wire which is getting very very hot and I feel that’s not rates properly.

Update -Emma called me from waterworks and they're testing a new switch out. Once they're happy with it they are sending them out to all Power up 3D users. In the meantime they are reverting back to the yellow designed controllers.
