Hey all,
Just looking to hunt down the "perfect" diagram for a max 20a 120V RIMS setup (likely a 1500w element) with PID. I've sifted through lots of PJ's diagrams, but none seem to be just right. I've found one that looks to be 90% there, but it includes a contacter between the SSR and the element and I'll confess I'm not sure why -- does the SSR control itself not switch the element properly? Have I massively misunderstood the purpose of the SSR?
Help appreciated -- thanks everyone!
