Well if I cannot split it across (2) SSRs... you are telling me that I will always have current at my heating element? Meaning it will always be heating? Re-Read my post...
Since I cannot, tell me what exactly will be happening with my element when it has one hot leg at all times when my BK is empty... using one SSR.
2 SSRs are not overkill, but not required either. With one SSR, you are only breaking one leg of the heater. You will always have VOLTAGE at the heater, but not current. The heater will be off when the SSR is off, but you will have to know and remember that there is still voltage on the heater as long as the equipment is energized.
Same principal as when some inept electrician mis-wires a light in the house and puts the switch in the neutral leg. Turn the switch off and the light goes off as expected. But change out the bulb and stick your finger in the socket, it will still eat you for lunch!
Operationally, 1 SSR is fine as long as your connections are well insulated. Just remember, NEVER WORK ON THE HEATER WITH POWERCONNECTED BECAUSE ONE LEG WILL ALWAYS BE HOT!
