DongEun:

There is no difference, except to make the secondary heating coil ELECTRIC. No 
problem in eQuest.

Will,
 
If I understand correctly, reheat Delta T, which was to specify  max reheat coil 
capacity.
 
What I want is to switch reheat source from 'how water' to 'ectricity', while 
the heating source for 

 
the main heating coil is 'how water.'
 
Thank you.

You have to put a value for the reheat delta T or the reheat coils don’t kick 
on.
