Ok. Question for you. If you have a light bulb with only one wire (the hot wire) attached to it, will the bulb light up? I think not as there is no path for the electricity to flow. The same thing applies to a SSR. The SSR is, after all, a "Solid State Relay". When the SSR is not told to conduct electricity, there is no currect path and thus no current flow.
I do not know how else to explain it to you.
Ah, sorry I guess I misunderstood how 220 worked. I was under the impression that the two hot lines went through the ground. Thanks for explaining how it works.
