[QUOTE="Copper Beech, post: 523397, member: 32626"] I have to build a control unit for our Brewery which will control heating heating elements in our Hot Liqour Tank and Boil Kettle. The Boil Kettle has 3 x 5.5Kw elements powered through Solid State Relays so with all 3 on and ancillary equipment on at the same time I’m looking at drawing 80A. I have built a similar unit for our smaller brewery but that was around 50A so I had no problem sourcing 64A rated plugs and sockets. I was looking at having one supply to the unit but I’m having trouble sourcing higher rated plugs/sockets etc can anyone help? Should I consider supplying the Elements separately using 32A connectors or should I consider hard wiring the supply. Any help and advice would be most appreciated. I’ve attached a diagram of the smaller unit if that helps. The new unit will be very similar but with the higher rated elements. [/QUOTE]
