Home Docs Kiln Installation

I can’t find the circuit breaker box. Where is it usually located in a building?

Look for a small gray steel door mounted to a wall. The breaker box is usually in the garage or basement of a home. Sometimes they are even in a bedroom closet. Industrial locations such as the Paragon factory have breaker boxes throughout the building. Breaker boxes usually have a label glued to the inside of the door listing the breakers and the types of circuits (i.e. dryer, air conditioner, etc.). When you find the circuit for your kiln, write “kiln” on the line for the appropriate breaker.
