Wiring SWG into an integrated AO Smith timer

[windriver]

Hello,

I'm wondering if any of you have any experience, or if its even possible, to wire the SWG into the integrated timer on my 2 speed AO Smith pump?

Thanks for any help!

Welcome to TFP!!!

Sorry for the delay. I am a little confused though. Most 2-speed motors do not have timers built in to them. Can you post up more information and maybe pictures?

I is usual to power the SWG from the same timer source as the pump, but the timer is not usually integrated into the motor itself.

I don't believe they have any kind of external control connection. You will either need to use an external timer or get something like a current controlled relay to turn the SWG on only when the motor is drawing power.
