    Just a shout-out thanks to BamaRambler, 4knights and UnderWaterVanya. Took awhile to get the right breakers, ended up needing contactors for units over 25A, etc., etc., etc., but the "model" system worked and we're starting to use that layout on all current and future installs. This will make...

    Hmmm... here's where my lack of knowledge of electrical wiring causes the most problem. Not sure what "switching the load" would entail, but I hope the electrician will understand a literal translation of that. Anyway, I've instructed him to wire exactly as you indicated in the diagram, so...

    So even though the wiring is routed "through" the relay, it doesn't actually carry and isn't affected by that load? Appreciated!

    Bama Rambler, don't think I said thank you for the last confirmation(s)... so, thanks! (Oh, and congrats on the Tide!) Based on your clarifications, I was able to local a constant source of the 1P and 2P breakers from the States, but, after "okay'ing" those units, the electrician here now has a...

    Dave, thank you very much. This really helps a LOT. As I mentioned, though, I'm not an electrician, so I hope you won't mind if I try to verify a few things JIC...? 1. The pump, heater and inverter are indeed 240V, so I'm presuming the diag at bottom-right on P32 of the manual that you pointed...

    Bama Rambler: Should I be congratulating you on a BCS bid, or does your username signify something other than a Tide fan? Just want to check in and make sure you guys haven't forgotten about me. Though I know you're all surely busy, I do need to try to resolve this relatively soon now and...

    I'm feeling like the actual operations (software settings) aspect will indeed not be too hard for me to figure out, and I appreciate the info on the heater hook-up 4knights, thank you. Sounds simple and that I probably should have realized would be a given condition for running the heater. With...

    The basic "operations" we need to be able to control are as follows: 1. Turn ON/OFF ACTech inverter 2. Turn ON/OFF complete filtration system (pump, heater, ozonator) 3. Turn ON/OFF filtration pump alone 4. Turn ON/OFF filtration pump + heater 5. Turn ON/OFF filtration pump + ozonator 6. Turn...

    Rambler & 4knights, thank you for helping start this off! I'm jazzed that you guys, or gals(?) ;-) are willing/able to help in this way, half a world away. How did we all survive a decade or so ago when this kind of communication didn't exist!? ;-D OK, pretty much, we "generally" get a range...

    Hi all, I tried looking for previous related topics to no avail, so I'm posting... Not sure yet though if this is the appropriate forum, style, etc., so I'm going to give the background of my problem only, and then follow up with specifics if/when given the go ahead. My sig shows where I am...
