Antminer S9 repairs in the UK

[ukzerosniper]

Hi guys.

Does anyone know where I could get AntMiner S9s looked at in the uk.

We had a power cut and all our S9s stopped working.  When I power them on they just trip the breakers in the garage.  It's a 20amp breaker with 2 miners per breaker.

Because it trips so fast I'm unable to figure out if they are dead or not.  May it just be the power supplies?

Sorry for such little info, what else can I provide to assist any replies?

Maybe try unplugging one from the breaker and see if it works with just one miner to a breaker (if it does you can add the other later).
I'm not sure a power cut should do anything to damage the miners as they have very little secondary storage that needs constantly saving to, as far as I know.

20 amp x 240 = 4800 watts

2 s-9s = 2800 watts.


try 1 s-9  see if it trips.

maybe your circuit breaker is too sensitive to the initial surge at power on.

If 1  works  wait  10 min  turn second one on.

It does trip with just 1.

Doesn't trip with kettles or heaters.

something shorted then.

may be the psu's or the s-9's

... So unplug the S9 from the PSU and try the single PSU on it's own...
Check voltage on the PSU, then try powering something cheaper with it, if you have something, otherwise power just the processor board.
Stepwise diagnosis!

Hi Guys,

With all my miners the processor boards come online just fine.  They report socket connection errors.

Some of the miners seem to have some boards working but not all. 

What are the diagnostics procedures to try and resurrect dead boards?

Are there any shops which conduct repairs in the UK?

You may be better off contacting bitcoinwarranty.com bitmainwarranty.com you will have to pay, but they have repair center in the Ukraine and Russia. Or you could send it to the US repair center. Open a ticket with them on the web site and see what they suggest.
