I'm currently finishing up a 20gal eherms system...
Controller: 240 volt, two 30 amp breakers for elements, two 15 amp breakers for pumps
Connection: Dedicated 240 volt, 60 amp breaker in panel
Elements: 204 volt 6500 watt
With this setup, will both elements be able to be powered on concurrently (no pun intended) or will I have to settle on 5500 watt elements? And, with that in mind, will I notice that much of an increase in speed as pertains to the time it takes to reach a boil between the 5500 watt elements and the 6500 watt elements?
Thanks in advance.
