I'm looking for a little help wiring up my control box for my PID. I am looking to power only 1 5500w element from this box with 10/3 wire and 3 prong dryer inlets/outlets.
Here are my components:
MYPIN TD4-SNR & Fotek SSR 40DA

IMAGE® PT100 RTD

Uxcell Heat Sink for Solid SSR 10A-40A https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ARBA02A/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20
Utilitech 5500w element

Project box (plastic ammo box)

Toggle switch? (Not yet purchased)
This is for my hlt only to heat strike water. Id appreciate any diagram or suggestions you guys could provide. I'm not planning on using alarms unless otherwise suggested. I'm a carpenter by trade and usually leave electrical work to the professionals. I will have my work checked by an electrician before plugging in. I'd just like to have a good start before bothering him.
Thanks in advance.
