    Both these values are ranges that the device can support. The 3-32vdc input will require you to purchase a pid controller that can output a dc voltage signal within this range to drive the SSR.

    The 24-380vac value means the ssr can can handle a switched voltage range between 24 and 380 volts AC. Most residential service can supply 120vac and 240vac.

    With this SSR you would be limited to around 11,500 watts of heating elements.

    Re: oven wiring

    You need an orderly approach to your build. First you need to determine if you have sufficient electrical service to provide power to an oven. Once your electrical resources are known, you can look to plan the oven size and watts requirement to heat said oven. Only then should you look to purchase SSR's, elements, controllers, etc. No one can help you by recommending components without knowing the above.

    You can build an oven with 16 gauge, but I think that is thicker than required and will be difficult to bend without proper equipment. I used 24 gauge galvanized on my oven.
