The tanning bed now is not functioning- the fans blow, but the unit does not come on.We removed the switch and just have the outlet connected directly with no switch. When we originally did this we had the wrong switch (single pole switch instead of a double pole switch) on the outlet and it blew out.We then moved the tanning bed to the new room and the outlet that we had wired in there from the double pole breaker.I disconnected this and installed a double pole 30Amp breaker with a hot connected to each side of the double pole breaker. When we disconnected the original outlet in order to run the new outlet I was surprised to discover that the double pole breaker (20Amp) I thought it was attached to it was really only connected to one half of the double pole unit and the other “Hot” was connected to a different 20Amp breaker on the other side of the breaker box.The tanning bed was using a different 220 volt outlet in the basement that I had an electrician install quite some time ago in order to power an air conditioner originally. I live in an old house built around 1910 and I was running a new outlet to power a tanning bed and ran into some problems. Electrical Question: What is the correct way to wire a tanning bed?
