And put it near the installation. In the control box is better for me.
Actually this is a breaker differential so it does both protection against overload and current lost. By the way the differential is useless if you plug it behind the one you already have in your house Board for all the wet zone (kitchen, bathroom,...)
Here it seems that it’s plugged right behind the main breaker so before the differential what seems the good way to make it.

Too much talking. Use a gas burner and silex to fire it. Works great in my experience.
Me and my crew preping the mash :

Tsss always more btu ans the watts are always there
Inside
Outside
With or without wind
They are there
The box is from Rittal
For the breaker and the différentiel I always prefer to have them directly in the box. It's more secure in any place where I brew

Hi,
Can you explain your wiring schema?
edit:
Ce serait bien de migrer une partie du post vers une section appropriée

Yes it is used from main box into the garage. The question I have is in the states we use GFCI breakers for any wet zones that trip at 5 or 6mA depending on your state. But over here I have not found any RCD or differentiels that go less than 30mA. Is that safe? I thought in Europe it can go down to 10mA.

Hello and welcome !
In Belgium we only use 30 mA for wet zones,
But checks your grounding system !

OK.
I'm late obviously.
So first thing first: welcome here Anthoney !
Second thing, I laughed at two answers here...

Just because this guy is one of the only "professionals" here. (but we like him anyway.)

And this one, because everyone was talking about complex wiring,and Didier just comes like "Hi Buddy !"
Anyway, all that electricity thing is way too complicated for me, I can't help, sorry.
But be sure not to burn your new house... Your wife would probably get upset.
(and from what I understood the idea of grabbing a nice homebrew wouldn't cheer her up.
