Need some assistance with wiring a PID to control my rims element.
Only problem is I can't find a good diagram. One that is simple, well labelled, clear, and has all required components.
Does anyone have a good diagram I could utilise

Which wires go where depends on your PID model/brand. If you post a bit more detail on what you have and what you are controlling, then we can help a bit more. Generally though, there'll be 6 wires: Mains active and neutral, thermocouple positive and negative, and relay positive and negative. Googling the data sheet for your model should tell you which is which. Once your PID is wired up, you just wire your element into the relay and it should get switched on/off accordingly. |

Sorry about the lack of info
Inkbird ITC-100VH is the PID model using pt100 sensor

Sorry about the lack of info Inkbird ITC-100VH is the PID model using pt100 sensor This looks up your alley then. I think the only difference is the pt100 sensor goes onto different terminals than a thermo couple would. www.vegoilguy.co.uk/pid.php |

But that's not nice so Merry Christmas to you to (With reservations 
) LOL!
