After the freeze, my MicroBrite lights as well as my equipment pad light and landscape light transformer (both controlled as relays via IntelliCenter) are not working. I hear the "clicks" when I attempt to turn them on, but it seems like they aren't getting power. Any ideas?
 
Did you reset the circuit breakers?

Do you have a multimeter to check voltage on the load side of the relays?

Trace the power around the relays and you should find the problem.

Yes, already tried a complete power down and restart. Circuit breakers are closed. I'll get my multimeter out tomorrow and take some measurements. I should also add that my pump is working normally.
 
pjt,

Sounds like you popped the GFCI that feeds all the lights.. This can be a breaker GFCI, but often they use the backside of a GFCI outlet mounted in the side of the Enclosure..

I suspect that if you reset the outlet GFCI, things will work again..

Thanks,

Jim R.

You were right! The GFCI outlet on the side of the load center was tripped. Everything works normally again. Thanks!
