ok, few electical questions.
First I'll briefly explain what I'm trying to do. Hooking up a thermostat for infloor heating in kitchen, existing house, not new. So we are installing a new Range to replace the stovetop that was there from previous owner, we ran a new wire for the new range. We are now using the existing wire (from stovetop) for the hookup of the infloor heating witch is a 240v line which is required for the infloor heating. Now the problem.
This a 3wire (red,black,white & ground). Now the thermostat requires 2 wires to hook up. my question, which wires do I hook up? I turned on the breaker to see what voltage each wire has:
White 0 volts Black 118 volts Red 119 volts
do I just hook up the black and red wires and forget the white wire?
I know, call an electrician, but I almost got it done, this is my last problem.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Steve
