Heyya,
So I recently got myself a bizhub 454e, but later realized I did not have a 20 amp outlet in my office space. I decided to see if i could simply fit a 20 amp outlet in place of a 15 amp outlet without doing the wiring or fuse box for it and initially it worked fine. But about 2 days later there was a POP and now the machine won't power up fully.
When initially plugged in to the 20 amp outlet (which still has 15 amp cables that run to the mains technically), the screen will flash on for a split second and then the machine is dead again. Appears as if it has no power. It was plugged into a "Panamax M2A20 20A Surge Protector" at the time as well, but appears the issue is from within the machine as the smell of something burnt is within the machine. Surge protector and 20 amp outlet appear to be working fine, multimeter shows power flowing into it without an issue.
I have also opened the back of my bizhub 454e and took both the sub power board and main power board out to see if it was anything obvious, but I cannot see anything burnt or fried.
If anyone has any helpful input or a nudge in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it!
