outside lighting

[nelly9908]

can anyone tell me how to wire a lighting circuit using a timeclock, photocell and a contactor please. need the lights not to come on till dark and go off via the timeclock at 1am, and all run through a contactor to the outside son's.

timeclock output has photocell in series to the contactor coil

the penny's dropped.:bomb2: i was forgeting the photocell was dusk till dawn, couldn't work out how the timeclock would break the circuit at 1am. i was thinking the photocell would break the circuit at 12am.
