240 gfci breaker troubleshooting help

[Wulf202]

The amperage is different but there are the same number of wires and volts to a stove if you need to temp change the plug.

Or use the whip from the stove and wire to your sub panel

Isolated and ohmed during initial troubleshooting no continuity anywhere it shouldn't be. And the gold screw top right of the sub panel is not touching the box itself it is isolated with a piece of plastic and is what holds the neutral bar to the box itself on a piece of plastic


kinda want to put it on a different 240 circuit and see if the problem follows meaning I have a problem on my dryer circuit but sadly my stove has a different plug.

Why not just hook it up directly to your main panel board to test the breaker? That would tell you if it's a bad breaker or a wiring issue.

Sounds like a bad breaker, in my experience GFI breakers fail far more often than a standard breaker.

in apartment with no real access to my panel

Update on this bit the bullet and bought another breaker at the despot today. Unit is working again!

now I need to see what Home Depot is going to do about replacing the original one .

Controller is very simple potentiometer controlled ssvr relay the display is a bayite multifunction led display in a square box from the depot 50 amp gfci spa subpanel. Nema rated twist lock plugs into a 5500 watt ultra low density element. Should boil 12 gallons of beer quite nicely.
