    Did not want to go that route as you would need separate breakers inside the control box and didnt think it was worth the hassel. We are using a 25 gal HLT so if we wanted to back to back 12 gallon batches we wouldn't lose much time. Just finished drilling, cutting and painting brewing...

Pretty sure you will need to auxiliary power it. see: http://wiki.embeddedcc.com/index.php?title=Wiring_and_Physical_Specifications Specifically Mechanical relays section. And maybe move your pump fuses...

    Input on design

    you need a neutral on your DPST main power relay control. Also 2000W @ 120 is 16.6 Amps not sure how much accessory power you will need/have additional. Explain what you are trying to do controlling the pump with the PID as well?
