We have the Delfield XL 6000 freezer. We have been having problems with the breaker keep fliping off and causing to loose food. We have had Delfield technicians to come out on several occasion and they have not been able to fix it. The technicians has change our overloader connected to the compressor, cord, thermostat and another part that has cost us over $600.00 and still not working. We are open for all and any suggestions to get this matter taking care of.

Ok ,
Does it trip all the time now,or only after running a while.?

If it trips right when you reset breaker with machine OFF, have the wiring checked for a dead short to ground up to the thermostat.

If it trips after running ,as it starts or intermittently there's a dead short to ground that could be any where.

You can simulate what is going on by doing this check.
Unplug machine.
Using an ohm meter,set to ohms, place a test lead on the ground prong(round one) .Place the other test lead to one of the remaining prongs.If there is any reading youv'e got a short. Try the other prong as well
However, if you get no reading there still could be an intermittent short .


Another thing to check. It might not be the machine at all.

Sometimes,if your wall recepticle is worn or old it can heat up causing circuit breaker trip.
Make sure there are no extention cords involved.
If you're on a 15 amp circuit ,you might want to upgrade to 20


Good hunting
