I plugged in my kettle/element to my control panel for the first time tonight. Everything was going great. I had my water temp from 51 - 112 in about 10 minutes. Then, suddenly, the breakers tripped (both my 50a breaker in my service panel and the GFI breaker I have in a spa panel). Now I can't turn the element on without both tripping.
If I unplug my kettle/element from my control panel, no breakers trip and my multimeter shows voltage flowing correctly to my receptacles.
I have included a wiring diagram below of my control panel (please excuse its crudeness). My element is a 4,500 watt ULWD Camco.
Any ideas? Or suggestions on where to troubleshoot next?
Thanks in advance!
