This is quite urgent. One of my vacation projects was this elec deal and vacation ends at bedtime, so help please and fast.
The project was to put 2 DPST (double pole single throw) timers in. I want all my lights on 2 timers instead of all the differant ones, also this will put all the lights on 1 circuit and frees up several outlets, and bla bla bla.
So here's the problem, wiring these timers, excluding the ground there are 5 wire ports
A Line 1 Load 2 Line 3 Load 4
with the wiring diagram it is clear that the load is 2 and 4 (plus the ground of course)
The line is suppose to be a 3 wire supply, neutral to A, then 1 and 3. The braker is a 2 wire.
The question, is there a way around the 3 wire?
I am no electrition, but could I put the white wire in A, splice the black and hit 1 and 3 or do I need to switch to a 3 wire supply?
Thanks for the help (if it is fast that is
