    Is my A419 Digital controller tripping the circuit breaker? I can run the mini fridge plugged directly into the same outlet without an issue. It doesn't trip when the controller turns the fridge on and it usually cycles on a off a couple of times before happening. The controller came prewired.

    Any Ideas?

    Is it a GFCI circuit?

    Yes, I was having issues with my circuit breaker tripping. I emailed the manufacturer of the temp controller and found my wiring schematics were way more complicated than what was needed. He emailed me back a hand drawing and once I wired it the way he drew it has worked like a champ. I hope this helps. Also, it should be pointed out that I am using a single stage temp controller, not a dual stage. Now I just saw that your controller came pre wired, I had to wire mine myself and it works great with this wiring. If you have any other questions I will do my best to answer them.

    Hey Denny, what if it was tripping when it was plugged into a GFCI? I am having that problem in the garage.
