Hi all,
First of all i haven't much experience with contactors, I need to install a timer to switch 3 discharge lamps. I vaguely remember from my training that contactors should be used when using a timer unit to switch discharge lighting, as timer contacts will burn out when switching the load off.
My question is can i use the same circuit to switch the coil. L & N to timer input & top of contactor, link N to bottom of coil & SL to top of coil.
Thanks
