[QUOTE="TJ Cornish, post: 35093, member: 162"] Re: Cam lock power hummm / buzz.... Seems to me that you need to figure out exactly where the buzz is coming from. If from a panel enclosure, you might be able to "fix" it with a little electrician's putty strategically placed to dampen the vibration. If it's inside one or more of the dimmer packs, you could remove the cover, turn the lights on, and poke around with an insulated stick and see if you can find the vibrating component. There may be loose screws holding a board down. If it's a transformer buzzing, there's not much you can do - any attempt to mechanically dampen the windings with hot glue or epoxy could hinder thermal conductivity. [/QUOTE]
