Re: researching-elec questions
There are a lot of nice ovens in this forum and they all I am sure do a fine job. I do think some of the guys go a little crazy with their electronics and controls. The same job can be done with far less expence, but thats up to the individual. You can use a multi purpose contactor from your local appliance repair shop or Grainger. If you know an HVAC guy he can get everything you need from the HVAC or Appliance wholesale house for cheaper than you might expect. Keep in mind that these controls need to be located from the heat but thats no big deal. I am going to use a thermostate out of the oven that I am taking the elements out of. I do have a background in HVAC and appliance repair so this is no problem. Be safe and choose yor parts to handle the amperage you need. Apply OHM'S Law and add 10-20% will be a good starting point..............
