Unfortunately no, the dryer was running off a double pole 30A breaker, then the heating element went bad. We had it replaced and now the heating element will only heat up if the dryer is wires into a double 60A breaker, which is completely weird. I've changed the breaker, replaced the actual receptacle and still the same issue. My next try will be to use a standard size double breaker instead of the slim breakers.

By slim breaker, do you mean this 30-30?

Or a 20-30-30-20?

Do you have 240 volts between the two ungrounded conductors when on the 30 amp breaker?

Neither one of those thanks though. I tried to add a pic but my phone sucks and wouldn't let me, but if you Google GE 30A double pole breaker you can see what it looks like

Sounds like the wrong element was installed IMO. Doubt the element should require a 60 amp double pole breaker. I would say it would be too hot and is a fire hazard. Most standard ovens dont require a 60 amp double pole breaker. You are trying to dry clothes not bake turkeys.

This is assuming you know what double pole means and arent using slims as shown above. The slims are two single poles at 120V with separate breakers. Double pole means 240V with the two breakers tied together.

Does the breaker get thrown when you have the dryer wired into the 30 amp double pole? If so, there is either a short or it is pulling too much amps (wrong sized element)

The one question I'm not seeing asked is ... what gauge wire are you attempting to run this possibly 60 amp dryer on? If it was previously a 30 amp 2 pole breaker, are the wires 10s?

The wire is 10 guage and @Vith, I do know what a double pole is, thanks.

You can't use the 60 amp breaker with the 10s, a 30 amp breaker is the highest you may go. The circuit breaker is in place to protect the wire, it's not sized based on the load.

IF the new heating element is the proper one (seems strange to me that the unit was previously a 30 amp dryer, and now it's a 60A), then you'll need to increase the conductors to 6's for the 60A load.
