Bob, thanks for the response. Just a few more questions.
(1) How does the kiln-gard tripping via a cone, turn off the main power
to the kiln? There must be an intermediate "black box" which the
kiln-gard plugs into?
(2) My phone number is 908-356-2237 in NJ. If you don't mind sending
yours, I'd like to give you a call. Thanks again.
Tried to E-mail off the list and didn't get through.

Cheryl:
Re: the kiln gard. The kiln gard is actually a switch that turns the kiln
off when it reaches temperature, however this must be placed in series with
the power line in order for it to work. I suspect that your kiln gard has a
plug on it that plugs into the power source and your kiln plugs into a socket
on the base of the kiln gard. I'm not sure what configuration your kiln gard
has. If you realize what the kg (kiln gard) does and how it works, hooking
it up will be simple. I am assuming that your kg was not installed on the
kiln. If the one that you have does not have either a plug on it or a socket
on the base, then you will have to hire an electrician to wire it in for you.
Why don't you just give me a description of your kg, indicating what wires or
plugs your kg has and the rest should be simple. My phone is 717 486-3241
in case you still have trouble. By the way you never said if this kg was
used before or not, or if it is new. Anyhow give me a description of the kg
you have so we can carry on from there.
Bob
