Note:
If the STC 1000 will be connected to a power-point and used to control a Fridge, HLT or similar, it is a legal requirement in Australia to have qualified tradesperson or a licensed electrician wire such a device.
240V and 240V appliances can be very dangerous, it is not a good idea to attempt to wire them yourself.
STC 1000 ($20 Ebay), enclosure (click-storage container $2.50 Coles), 3 point terminal block ($1 for 12 point Ebay), 3x PG11 cable glands ($6 for 20 Ebay), 2x 3m extension cords ($3 ea Kmart):
(Jiffy-type boxes also work very well as enclosure.)
Use step-bit to drill holes in enclosure for cable glands, drill hole for temperature probe:
(If not using cable glands, drill holes the same size as the cable and use cable-ties on either side for tension-relief)
Cut out mounting hole for STC 1000:
Cut cords, strip wires:
Fit cable glands & slide cord through, attach wires to terminal block:
This (and the next few steps) is where you need the qualified electrician, do not DIY this, especially if you are unsure about the circuit diagram.
Fit to STC 1000:
Ensure there is no tension on internal wires, make things look neat, tighten cable glands, use cable-ties for tension-relief on temperature probe:
Label plugs, tape enclosure closed:
Using the STC 1000:
