You are the best!! so attach in a series manner, and which one does the little white light wire and black wire connect to in the series?

The ohms read about 11.0-10.3 I took the red and black and put it at the two ends of the element

Bill you are a life saver! So two questions how do I connect the two wires in the middle and is the infinite switch the correct type? Should I get a different one ?

Check RobertShaw’s website and call the technicians they are very helpful they have every thing you might need for appliances and they also own paragon

Yeah I agree, for the wires I’m using a butt connector with the kiln wires one end then a 10guage stranded wire on the other end into the disconnect to then go into the controller

I have two 30amps connected I had an electrician install it for the kiln

here is the picture of the infinite switch speciations update: I wired everything up (not sure if it’s right) the elements got yellow hot FAST and the infinite switches started smoking and got red inside. Not sure what I did wrong

Yes, I have two 4 way switches and two infinite switches. Yes thank you, the diagram looks the same except for the ground casing on the side

How do I measure the resistance? Here is a picture of the plate

Yes, here is what mine looks like

Hi! I recently was gifted a paragon A88b kiln and need to swap out the 4 way switch to the infinite switch. I’m not sure which wire goes where. the image is what it says to connect to which wire. However with all the wires I’m not sure which goes where. I included what my own looks and there are over 10 wires total to connect for each one. I am hoping for some clarity or even a little diagram on what wire to connect to the new infinite switch thank you in advance

Okay I was following up until this point. I bought the infinite switch and was curious how do the wires move over from the 4-way switch that is in the kiln
