Please take a look at my electrical diagram.

Post by Stiller1134 »

If someone could take a look at my electric diagram and give me some feedback, I would greatly appreciate it. I have done a lot of research and want to play it safe.

A few questions I still have are:

-The wire I plan on using has black/white/green wires. The other wiring diagrams I have seen don’t have a white wire, but a red one. As long as I am not building anything that will have to pass a building inspection, and will ONLY be used for this one project, is it safe to use the white (neutral) wire as a hot wire?

-The outlet I have in my apartment is a 20A 240V outlet. I learned that I could not hook up a 5500W element to that so should this 4500W one be good?

-Should I put a fuse on here somewhere? If so, what fuse and where?

-A fan? From what I gathered, if you have a good enough SSR, a fan is unnecessary. Better safe then sorry? If I should get a fan, what one and how should I attach it?

Everything I plan on getting:
