Suction head pressure OK,

Air flow OK,
Amperage draw OK,
Megger readings OK,
Customer NOT playing with T stat OK,
2 days later compressor blew...
relace whole unit under warranty, compressor not available
1 day later breaker keeps tripping
installed a time delay before the contactor and set for 5 minutes...
everything now works great..
this is an FYI posting.., hope it helps

Short cycling? Make and model of thermostat?

sounds like the problem is still there.....the time delay just prevents the short cycle.
If everything was always done "by the book"....the book would never change.

Weak breaker or loose wires.
Did you pull the panel cover to check for a good conection ? Or hot breaker ?
Just my 2 cents.
If you try to fail, and succeed.
Which have you done ?

Who manufactured the equipment?
I'd have to agree with smokin68--sounds like problem is still there. I've seen a few units that trip because of a loose wire at the breaker.

You said time delay "fixed" the problem. My guess is that your problem still there. Are you shure system is not short cycling?
