I have a 240V BIAB setup. I just got done brewing a batch of beer. When I tried to disconnect the power cord from the heating element I couldn't. It turns out the connector melted. I think this happened because as I was squeezing the grain bag some wort dripped onto the connector. It took a lot of grinding to disconnect the power cord from the heating element.
Shouldn't some sort of protection have kicked on. Like the GFCI breaker tripping. My setup is based on everything I have learned on this forum. My brew kettle was done by Brewhardware. I will from now on cover the connector. I'm just wondering if maybe my wiring is not quite right. Thanks.
