Electrical Question About Master Lighting Controller by C.A.P

I'm trying to do something similar! I'm honking up a 50 amp double pole breaker and running the 8/2 wire directly to the MLC.. 8/2 wire actually has 3 wires.. The ground and a grey and white wire. The picture on the MLC instructions are of a red and grey wire? What should I do :)?! Please help

The Grey and White wires are your power. You can connect your Grey wire to where the instructions say the Grey wire goes, then you connect your White wire to where the instructions say the Red wire goes. You can do this vice-versa it doesn't matter they both are your power wires. Connect your ground to the ground bar in the MLC. Your Grey wire at the panel will get screwed into one breaker of your double pole, and your White wire will get screwed into the other breaker of your double pole, ground wire at the panel goes to the ground bar in the panel.

I suggest a 6/2 on a 50 amp double breaker if you plan on running 8 x 1000kW
