I just finished a semi-custom control panel based closely off the Electric Brewing Supply 30 amp BIAB build. I powered it up and almost everything seems to be working right.
Turning on the element switch, I hear the clunk of the relay closing and the element light is on, but dim. But it never goes out, even when there should be no power to the element. I confirmed with a multimeter there is 58V going through the boil contactor when the SSR light isn’t lit, no voltage across the SSR control terminals and the EZBoil “out” led is off.
Adjusting the temp to trigger the heat on lights the SSR led, the “OUT” led, puts the element led at full brightness and I measure 240V across the boil contactor.
So, why the residual voltage? I imagine I mis-wired something, but where did I screw it up?
