So I have been dragging pieces over to China for about 2 years and I am in the final stages of getting my 29 gallon system up and running. The control circuit is really giving me a hard time. I thought I had it all figured out, but after looking at some diagrams over on the Electric Brewing forum I am wondering if I missed something.
Our electric is 210v on a single leg. GFCI is non-existent here, so I am going to have to integrate all of the safety into the panel somehow. For now here is just a basic diagram showing how I intended to use the BCS controller and a 40 am relay to control the element. I noticed that the Electric Brewers circuit uses a door bell relay and I am not certain why this is included.
Once I know for sure this basic design is correct I can order up my switches, plugs, box etc and start cutting holes.
