    How to add a time delay to a bathroom fan

    Hi I'm looking for some advice for adding a time delay on my parent's shower room fan. My parents had a section of their garage converted into a shower room with toilet. But the builders did something a bit odd. They fitted a pull cord light switch by the door and then a separate pull switch...

    Can anyone explain what a time delay RCD is needed for?

    I've scoured the internet for what these do and am coming up short on finding information. What are these for? (ie what specific problem are they trying to solve) and why do they need to be time delayed? Thanks in advance

    CAN I MAKE MY 1960S FRIEDLAND DOOR CHIME STAY ON FOR A DELAY AFTER PUSH IS RELEASED?

    Our old Friedland chime all too often now emits a only faint "ding"- because the person at the door (usually a delivery driver) just "dabs" at the button. It works from three buttons:- Outside of porch; inner front door (the outer front door when the house was built); back door. The...

    Was contacted by a local paper last week and asked about the Scottish Government smoke alarm requirements coming in on February. Was mentioned in an article (and even had my good looks used to enhance sales 😃 ), although they spelled my name wrong (Stewart McLintock) See below

    I'm using the stock fuel pump wiring to trigger two different relays for my two fuel pumps on my car built for drag racing.

    Combining a light activated switch with a 24hour timer delay for garden lighting.

    Hi there, I want to setup my garden lighting to come on when it's getting dark, but always turn off around 11:30pm. Obviously in the winter that may mean they come on at 5pm ish, whilst in summer that could be around 9pm I guess. But I don't want to turn them on manually all the time and neither...

    Can I use this Time Delay Switch on a panel heater?

    Just a quick one! I believe this time delay switch should work for my old panel heater (1.25kwh) because it handles loads up to 16A. Can anyone confirm this for me? I had someone tell me I needed a fused spur switch but others tell me I don't. FYI: the aim is to ensure the panel heater turns...

    TIme Delay Switch

    Hello, I have a 12VDC battery bus where I charge with solar PV and a wind turbine. The system is controlled using a Siemens PLC. When there is a system fault, the PLC will open all relays, but this included relays that power the PLC itself (example an emergency pushbutton). When restarting the...

    Text delay when typing is now fixed.

    There was a slight delay when you were typing and it was down to the smilies bar I had installed. So I've removed it. But not the smilies. Those are added to a post by clicking the happy face in the text options area now.

    Delay of around 30 second lightswitch?

    I'm trying to find a way to delay the lights coming on after the switch is turned on - this is so I don't disturb my wife when I go to our ensuite bathroom which has the light outside the room. I've thought of 4 ways: 1) Put a pull switch inside the bathroom - it's not our flat, so that would...

    Adding PV diverter to battery system - using delay switch??

    I am trying to add an Apollo Gem diverter to my battery grid tied system (Victron ESS). It is not going to work because both systems are fighting for the surplus solar power to either charge the battery or divert to immersion. If I add a delay timer switch in the immersion circuit so the load to...

    Headlights on Smartcar delay in switching on

    I recently purchased an old 2003 Smart Car as a 2nd run around car. I've noticed recently that some times when I turn the head lights to dipped or main beam there might be a long delay before they actually switch on. Some days it is instant and others I have this problem. Also the dash back...
