Yet another question to help me plan my build, control panel this time.
I'm pulling 240v which will first pass through a 40 or 50amp GFCI breaker, probably a spa panel attached to my rig so I can take it anywhere I have a source and not worry about the GFCI issue. This way I can brew in the garage or basement/back deck without purchasing two GFCI breakers for my home panel.
The 240v enters my CP, Hot leg 1 (L1) attaches to a distribution block to pull my 120 stuff, such as pumps, PID etc... Hot Leg 2 (L2) goes directly to the 240v receptical that will recieve my element plug from the BK.
(FYI: 5500 RIPP, PID, 2 pumps, HERMS, future plan to add PID and RIMS, Brutus 20e)
That gives me three distribution blocks, Neutral, Hot, Ground, and a hot L2 going to the receptical. No need to have a second hot distro block right?
Fuses as discussed in other threads between the hot and the instrument. BIG Freakin GFCI before any power gets to the box. Everything Grounded.
I've been reading about wiring, volts, watts and amps on tons of threads and google found refrences but want to make sure I'm getting the idea down correctly.
Thanks for all the help I've gotten so far.
