Another just-before-bed correction to make on your last schematic
update, where you reacted to this piece of advice:

I might have been too terse in describing what I meant. The 10k pulling
the SSR input to GND should stay, and a 250-ohm resistor should go
between the SSR input and the Arduino pin:
250
UNO_PIN>-----/\/\/\---+----------<SSR_IN
|
+---/\/\/\----<GND
10k
This way, if something goes bad inside the SSR and shorts its input to
ground, or it has a large capacitance, the 250-ohm resistor will limit
the current flowing out of the Uno (the exact same configuration and
reasoning for the MOSFET gate).
Happy 2020!
