Water temp doesn’t get above 90 degrees before tripping the reset on the Siemens contractor.
Main breaker in panel never trips. Single element, 208v. Verified amperage at contractor and ohmed out element and thermostat.
Tank was about 1/4 full of scale which I cleaned out and cleaned the heating element. Thought these two actions would solve my problem.
What is more like since I am getting “some” heating:
Element bad
Thermostat bad
Contractor/reset bad
About ready to pull my few remaining hairs out.
