5500 watt ultra low watt element

[dicko]

Hi
I am switching to electricity from gas(wife says the drink is killing my brain cells. I think it's the CO from my rambo burner)
Anyway I have a 5500 watt element. Anyone know how I can control it, ie turn it up and down?

Guys,
The conversation has gone from the answer to the original question to basically a "pissing contest" as to who knows more about electricity than the other.
In the interest firstly of a members safety I am going to LOCK this topic.

REFER TO RULE #4

My decision does not reflect the possibility that comments on the supply voltage may be or not be correct, but I strongly suggest that anyone considering relying on any information in this topic, seek professional advice.
