Hi Atreu, I'm in rocky and will be getting a sparky mate to do my controller but not sure when, I'm about to head back away for work and will be gone for a month or so. If you can't get something sorted before then I can ask my mate if he would do 2 at once, sure it won't be a problem might just cost a carton, that's what I'll give him for mine. I'll pm you my number either way, would be good to catch up with a fellow distiller for a beer( or whisky) or two :handgestures-thumbupleft:

RCD is a Residual Current Device that monitors the difference between Active Neutral & Earth currents or Amps.
If you touch a wire & an external Earth supply like a tap or metal shed etc it will detect the difference between the Active & Neutral power supply & trip the power supply.
A fuse will not blow in that situation.
Safety First, It's worth spending the money to get it done properly instead of using a mate who once knew an electrician.

Hi Tassie Tiger,
You're right, saftey is the first and most important priority.
Perhaps you'd like to introduce yourself in the welcome center as well.
Happy stilling!
