Yeah I swapped the PSUs out to working miners which are on different breakers and diagnosed the same result. 

What alerted me to the issue was an internet outage.  All the miners slowed and got cold, then when then internet returned, I noticed a couple of miners not come up to speed.  When I got to site and checked it out I found that the PSUs were showing a red LED.

I tried the PSUs in other miners and found it didn't change.

I am pretty confident they have died a death. Cry

death seems unlikely IMO - perhaps they tripped for some reason.

a few ideas:
1) plug everything in and leave it be for 5-10 min, booting or not
2) unplug the power. leave it unplugged for a full hour
3) plug back in, leave it be for at least 10-20min
4) remove psu from miner, isolate safely on a non-conductive surface, plug in. presumably the PS-ON trigger wont occur, and maybe that will allow the PSU to sort itself out
5) if you were on 120V, try 240V. or vice-versa

the psus are good quality, and of 12 SP3x/SP10 units that i do/have owned none were screwed up by either network or power outages/'blips'. hard to imagine multiple units going down to anything other than a safety trip
