Controller double check

Post by bcook608 »

So after doing some looking around, I decided to bite the bullet and dive in to the electrical world.
I have decided to modify my 5 gal stock pot still to run on an internal submerged element.

according to my math, this setup will generate 1625w of power @ approximately 14.78A draw which should be well within the 20A circuit I plan to use which is protected by a GFCI outlet.

I will be using the following:

Dernord 6500w ULWD Wavy Element

110v on/off switch - I'm going for a more industrial look for the switch

Auber DSPR1 Controller

Multimeter Ammeter/Voltmeter

Auber 40A SSR

Heatsink

10"x7"x4" Junction Box

110v 60mm Cooling fan - x2

I will be wiring everything together by repurposing a 25ft 10/3 extension cord which should give me more than enough wire to work with, plus it has factory connections on each end. I haven't decided if I want to wire direct to the element or give it a little pigtail and plug it into the female end of the cord.

Here is the diagram that I have put together for wiring. I am unfamiliar with the wiring of the DSPR1, but it seemed like the best option to go with. I know I don't NEED the multimeter/Ammeter/volt meter, but I like to have as much info as possible and this gives me multiple frames of reference to ensure I can repeat the process. Please let me know if I don't have things wired up the right way. I have ordered the parts listed above and as they start to show up, I will begin assembly. the layout may change over time, but I want to make sure my research into the wiring of everything has led me to the right conclusions.
