i have recently got hold of a hydroponic system of @Grassman and am begin to try to use it. i got it home Friday night after a 3 hour drive and safely unloaded it and positioned it in the shed today.
so today i plugged it in after the initial problem of extension leads not working. i plugged it in turned it on and it started to work the noise of the fan could be heard spinning and the light was on tooo. then all power went trip switch thrown :( the water pump was not running so it looks like the pump is causing problems with the rest of the machine.
sorry the pictures are not the best will up load better ones on Tuesday after i have had a look at the electrics

and once again thanks @Grassman
