Hello, for some reason the 110 side of my control panel keeps tripping the breaker (build in progress).. is what i have wire not correct?
There is a HLT side (220v 5500w), a Boil side (240v 4500) and the HEX side (120v 1500w) both the HLT and the boil sides (systems work just fine) Other than the PID being powered from one of the 240 sides (which im told is ok) all three systems are more or less independent of each other.
Checking.. i can plug the system in, and the PID comes on just fine (little red light blinks), and starts switching the SSR (little red light blinks).. but the second element is plugged in it trips the breaker.
i did notice.. that the Output side of the SSR and the N bus show 120v even when the PID is off and not switching it on...? (but im told that there is some leakage of the SSR)??? (high/low) not (on/off)
1500w elment on a 15A circuit is ok right? thats only ~12.5A...
