Hobart 20 QT. mixer (HL 200) will not operate on a GFCI receptacle.

I have a 20 QT. Hobart mixer on the project I am working on. By code, all of the receptacles in this comercial kitchen are required to be GFCI protected. The problem is, because the motor utilizes a phase converter, there is no return current on the neutral of the GFCI receptacle and it trips every time the mixer is energized. When plugged into a normal receptacle, the mixer works fine. What can be done to run this mixer and keep GFCI protection?

Thank you.

You need to replace the gfci,the older gfci's interpret these frequencies as a shock hazard and shut off power to the circuit.you can buy @hobart, part#913053, that should solve the trip problem. dont forget to vote thanks monomoy

Hobart HL 600 Trips GFI breakers

The sure fire tester for this problem is called a MEGGER and it measures the resistance between the insulations on everything. You could try that to see what it says. Some motors dont work well with GFI because they are capacitive start and that trips the GFI.

Hobart A200 Mixer not working

Sundance,
Please visit the corp website www.hobartcorp.com and click on the "Sign In" link in the upper right hand corner. You'll need to complete a brief registration form, but then you'll land in the Hobart Resource Center.

Hobart no longer manufactures the A200 mixer - but you can review and download a user manual and a parts catalog from the Resource Center on your mixer. That should help you understand the parts need.

We do sell replacement parts direct to end users, just visit our service website at www.hobartservice.com - and click on the "Locate on Office" link. You'll be able to contact your local Service branch to purchase a replacement part OR to have them take a look at the unit and provide a quote on fixing it.

If you have additional questions on Hobart products - please contact me at [email protected] .

Thanks!
