Should I follow the electrician’s advice if he suggests

Updated on Jan 24, 2025

If an electrician disagrees with the kiln manufacturer's recommendation, that is perfectly okay as long as he wants to install a heavier wire gauge than the recommended specifications and he knows what he's doing. The problem is that some electricians feel that a lighter wire gauge will be adequate for a particular breaker. Also, if a local code contradicts the kiln manufacturer's recommendation, you should follow the local code.
