    1 2 for the power... DC12V so take note of the polarity
    4 5 switch - AC load - only one line...

    Cut one line and connect them in 4 5

    Do not cut the second line.

    So doon sa "Power" i-tapped? Tapos ang maging switch itong timer na? If i want to used the existing switch I tap mag jumper na lang ng two wire para doon sa "switch"?

    Baka sumabog nanaman parang yun outlet sa Kitchen dati. [emoji23] patay nanaman ako.

    Disregard the photos in my first post.



    Saan i connect yun dalawang wires coming out from the wall? Doon sa "Power" or isang wire sa "Power" then isang wire sa "switch"?

    *cvt dito ka reply.

    Wala naman mangyayari diba kahit madikit ko yun wires ng switch iilaw lang siya unlike wires ng outlet sasabog

    Sorry bro. I was driving.

    Connect the two live wires on the terminals marked as "power" in the picture.... And then the other two wires going to the appliance on the terminals marked as "switch" in the picture..

    You can test... Connect the two live wires on the terminals marked as "power"... And then connect two wires from the bulb to the terminals marked as "switch" in the picture.. If the timer turns on , -the bulb will light up... If the timer turns off, the bulb will turn off..

    (The switch in this picture is now double pole double throw... Vs your first picture which is single pole single throw)

    What appliance are you connecting?

    Paano pag hinde sa appliances gagamitin? Celing light lang gusto ko gamitan? So yun dalawang wires from the wall sa power siya and not one wire on power-one wire in the switch? Bale ito na magiging switch instead of the regular light switch Diba?

    Bro ceiling light, mas okay iyong first picture dahil 1 wire lang dumaraan sa light switch... So single pole single throw dapat.

    Yes, that would replace your light switch...

    Again okay lang kung 110v AC makuha mo na timer switch... It will work here... Bababa Lang ang power rating, but it does not matter because the load is only lighting...

    You can still use it bro

    Connect two live wires to the terminals of power.
    You need to get a new line for this.

    Connect the wire of the light switch going to the bulb to one of the terminals of "switch". The live wire of the light switch, do not connect,- just cut and tape it.

    For precaution, use only an incandescent bulb. This will act as your fuse if you have the wrong connection.


    If the timer switch turns on. The bulb should turn on. If not, check the bulb if busted and replace with another incandescent bulb.

    Then transfer the wire from one terminal of the switch to the other... The bulb should light up this time...

    I don't want you to be testing wires so I thought of a de facto fuse which is the incandescent bulb.

    If i understand correctly "dalawang wires coming out of the wall" means "dalawang wires na dati nakakabit sa light switch"?

    If so, those two wires coming out of the wall connect to timer "switch".

    You now have to provide AC power to the timer "power" terminals, say from a convenience outlet. Note that this powers only the timer, not the light.

    Good luck!

    This is how I understand it too.

    Pull out the existing wall switch and connect those 2 wires to the pins labeled "switch". The "power" is just for powering up the timer's electronics.

    If you have an ohmmeter, you should have continuity between the "switch" terminals when the timer activates.

    You have to use separate 12VDC power supply for this to operate. Why not just use the readily available in malls like Ledtec IT88


    or use the industrial grade Omron timer pluggable in DIN rail manual or digital or with power-on-delay, meron dyan sa Soler at T.Alonzo, Cheson controls.

    similar thread btw mechanical timer

    That device is a normally open switch terminal which connects the load to the 220AC line once the switch is activated.

    All you have to do is connect the load to the switch in SERIES.

    yes, except the power is 12Vdc instead if 220Vac.

    yung sinasabi ni shadow na 2 wires from the wall that will be the 220V on the left side connected in series to the switch and the light bulb.

How do you wire a wall light switch to this timer?
