Sorry , just got in from work..
I live in Worcestershire for anybody who would like too know.
I installed all the supplies for pool last September ready for the pool guys (see 1st picture). I got called back last week to see if I could sort why circulating pump isn't turning off as pool...
No at the moment it runs 24/7 and they don't want it to. They just want it all to automatically restart after power cut to stop pool going green. Thanks
I have been told the timer controlls starter to pump and uv lights so if they are away on holiday and have power cut the pool doesn't go go green.
The timer controlls the uv lights however doesn't affect the starter, it is just running 24/7. I was presuming the contactor would be N/C and timer...

2. Best way to do 50m of Led strip...

Aren't dol starters just contactors with overloads built in?
I also read up on CE marking. I will let customer know!
I am meeting supplier of machines Wednesday so that should be interesting.
Thanks again
This is a lot more complex than I thought.
The machines are all fed from a 3 phase transwave 22kw converter. (no 3 phase supply to building)
So am I right in thinking the motors can be supplied via a dol starter with overloads set at flc and connected in star or am I totally wrong and shouldn't...
The CNC is a complete unit with connection terminals for the supply. It was just the extract and pump motors that don't have starters etc. They are independant machines to the CNC so I just thought I could connect them up through a rotary isolator and a dol starter.
They are new machines and...
