This is very helpful ! Thanks! It currently has a 10-50 plug on it... I plan on cutting the plug and hooking it to a 60 amp disconnect instead of a plug/receptacle for two purposes - so a high amperage unit doesn't have a plug/receptacle (and a potential point of failure/danger) and because a 6 gauge replacement power cord is so expensive. Cords and receptacle all look like they are in good shape.. will be cutting the plug off and wiring it up this week. Thanks for the help!

Interior height is 18 inches, plus 9 inches for the top ring.

Hi all, I am working on installing a kiln for my wife's pottery room. I found a great deal on a Gare, Inc. 2327 kiln. It is in two sections, with the top section being screwed to the bottom section and connected with a 120v plug to the LT3K kiln sitter. The tag on the bottom section states that the kiln is 45 amps, 10,800 watts. There is also a tag on the top section that says it is 15 amps . The top section has 2 elements on it. My question is.... Is the 45 amp tag on the "main" part of the kiln the total amperage of the unit, and the 15 amps on the top section is just for those two elements ? Or is it actually 60 amps total (45 + 15) ? I planned on running a 60 amp breaker with 6 gauge wire to the unit, and want to ensure this is adequate.
