Nero 3 plug hot

[Don.ald]

The plug on my Nero 3 is hot. Tried different receptacles and no change. Anyone else have this issue?

They get warm but never hot to the touch

Maybe you have something restricting the flow. Or are you running it wide open all the time?

I can't say specifically about your wave maker but with electronics in general a connection heating up is a sign of a bad connection. Is there any corrosion on the terminals?

I guess I always thought hot plugs typically meant bad outlets. Maybe @Brew12 is around. Lots of other sparky's on R2R too, hopefully one chimes in.

Hot plugs typically mean a bad connection between the outlet and the plug. One or the other could have something preventing it from making a good electrical connection.
Since it happens in multiple receptacles I would try cleaning the prongs on the plug with rubbing alcohol or even a very fine sandpaper.
