I have been learning WAY more about electricity than I ever thought I would when I decided to take on this project.....
I am building a RIMS tube that will attach to a toolbox and all the electrical stuff will go in the toolbox. 120vAC system. Will use 3 pushbuttons to run: PID/heater/RTD, pump/fan, and float switch (just for sparging). Each of the pushbuttons has 1NC block and 1NO block.
Would love advice on whether I have the attached diagram laid out correctly.
A few specific questions:
Thanks in advance for the help.

A few specific questions:
- I don't think I need any 120vAC negative running from the pushbuttons because the power will be flowing through there to the loaded item and so should complete the circuit further back and then still light up. Is that correct? I am most concerned about far right pushbutton because it is designed to be open when pressed which means there will be no power flowing through it at that point. So, how does it light up?
- I also think I have the SSR wiring set up correctly, but not sure. Mostly concerned about the 14gauge portion. Pretty confident with the PID (purple) hookups
- Is that the right fuse size (15amps) and placed in the right location? ie. hot side
- Is the transformer the right item in the top right? relay? another SSR? Won't be cycling as often as the heater and pump doesn't draw as much power as heater so not sure.
- Is the wire gauge selection correct?
Thanks in advance for the help.
