Relay wiring for pool switch

Adam Bailey · Sep 20, 2017

Anyone able to throw some light on this,

Have power to the relay, the pulse switch switches the relay, but not getting any power on terminals 1 3 or 5, am I missing something?

Is that the extent of the wiring Adam?

Terminal 1, 3 and 5 don't have voltage on them by the looks, they're just switching terminals (?)

Yep, Drawing is limited,

Can only assume it’s not getting power from the input to the relay, and that I have to supply a com to one of the terminals 1/3/5?

Its just a change-over relay. You supply to terminal 3 and take the signal/supply from 1 or 5, depending if you want NO or NC.

Time for a visit from your friendly local Electrician Adam, you know it makes sense.

It's a volt free contact with the look of it.

Turn your multimeter to d.c and check. Make sure you have a correct reference point for voltage detection........... or call a spark either way.
