Outlet is wired correctly and has one outlet between it and the panel. Kids borrowed the surge protector the other day. I will relieve them of that before I install the new board. I think I'm going to the new style board and a red ESP despite a 1 week old black one in the stove right now. Going forward the parts will all be less expensive. I've run this for 6 years and little has changed, this has been an expensive season.
