Why your Mining Voltage is unstable (My Experience)

My miner’s dashboard showed unstable voltage (Vin), dropping as low as 11.6V.

What didn't work: I tried using the ADJ screw on the PSU to increase the voltage, but it didn't solve the instability or the drops in the dashboard.

The Discovery: The root cause was a lack of Grounding (Earthing) in my home's electrical outlets. Without a ground, the PSU couldn't filter noise and stabilize its output.

The Fix: I installed a dedicated ground wire from the main panel to my mining setup.

The Result: Voltage stabilized immediately between 12.0V and 12.3V in the miner's log. No more fluctuations.

Conclusion: For those who don't know, a proper ground is MANDATORY for mining PSUs. Adjusting the voltage won't fix a bad electrical foundation. Ground your power supply to stabilize your Volts!
