These links contradict that statement: https://www.rollitup.org/p/11201237/ https://www.rollitup.org/t/titan-helios-12-240v-light-controller-wiring-question.810645/ https://www.rollitup.org/t/helios-12-hook-up-to-dryer-cord-need-help-please.777953/

I wouldn't know if it is possible to get 240 volts from that box. Only your electrician can verify what's inside that box.

Did your trailer came from the manufacturer with a 30 amp three prong power cord? Or did your trailer came from the manufacturer with a 50 amp four prong power cord? The 30 amp receptacle at the electrical service panel is only capable of supplying 120 volts. The 50 amp receptacle at the...

Curious as to what brand and model of the timers that are failing you? Is the failure related to the clock motor not working, or is it related to not tripping when it suppose to trip, or is related to the contacts being burned out?

The middle wire in a 3 prong dryer cord is the ground. Unlike the round shape cord, the 3 wire cord is shaped flat.

The Helios 4 lighting controller not only requires a dedicated 30 amp 240 volts circuit, but it also requires a 120 volts wall receptacle. This is necessary because the electromagnetic solenoid (relay coil) that mechanically pull and hold the contacts of the contactor closed is rated to operate...

The Titan Helios 7 lighting controller has a built in 24 hours timer which requires a neutral for the 120 volts relay coil.

Your logic that 240v breakers are nothing but two 120v breakers put together is incorrectly worded. It would be more logical to think that double pole circuit breakers are nothing but two single pole circuit breakers put together. In this scenario each of the single pole circuit breakers are on...

When I first read your post Thursday, I had a gut feeling that your post would get plenty of views, but would get no reply. Your post started out asking "Is there a repeat cycle timer with built in thermostat control I can get"? I don't know of any on the market, perhaps there isn't enough...

In my particular case, I never did put my plan into practice as I decided to scrap the idea. I ended up deciding that buying and installing a separate fan on its own separate circuit seem like a more practical solution in my situation.

Now that I had more time to giving the idea more thought...the idea I have previously given using a SPDT relay would be a bit inappropriate in your situation because of the higher amperage demand of your 1/2 hp motor, and also would be unnecessary to have a double throw relay because there isn't...

I had a similar idea of doing the same thing for a friend of mine here in the United States, but having no idea of what country you are living at, nor what type of electrical service you have, I can only comment on what I was planning to do for a 6" Vortex fan that is power by 120 volts. I was...

The short answer is "yes it will work", but it depends on your definition of the word "mains", and what is considered "acceptable wiring practice" in your country. For those of us living in the United States that have 120/240 volts split phase electrical service, generally intake/ extraction...

Upon further examination of the photo of the timer wiring when I zoom-in on the picture, it does appear that there might be a wire (black in appearance) that is obscured from view behind the four white wires and the heavier gauge red wire. If that black wire is indeed going to the same terminal...

I notice in your photo that you have "Type I" style plugs and sockets...which is standard for Australia and New Zealand. It is my understanding that the standard power outlet in Australia and New Zealand provides a nominal voltage of 230 volts at a maximum of 10 amps. I would think that a 2400...

Other than being limited to a 100 amps main panel, is there any reason (something that you haven't told us about) that would lead us to believe that the electrical service to your home is any different than most residential service in North America that is supplied with 240 volts / 120 volts...

The connector is rated to be used for voltages up to 250 volts. The connector is rated for a maximum ampacity (the maximum amount of electrical current) of 10 amps. Regardless if you are using 120 volts or 240 volts, you are not allowed to exceed 10 amps through the connector. Wattage is best...

It might be of help to read this article... http://ecmweb.com/basics/sizing-circuit-breaker

On the secondary side of the pole mounted step down transformer serving that resident, the center tap of the transformer winding (which now becomes refer to as the "neutral" connection on the transformer) gets grounded to earth ground. The neutral wire feeding to your home gets grounded again to...
