ENVIRONMENTAL RATINGS

Ambient Temperature: –40F to 130F
Humidity: 0-95% RH, Non-condensing

WIRING CONNECTIONS

Screw clamp terminals for up to 2, 8 AWG wires per position. For supply 
connections, use 8AWG or larger wires suitable for at least 105° C. Use copper 
conductors only.

Lights

Power LED (Orange)

 – Light illuminates when power is applied to  

the timer

Status LED (Green) 

– Light illuminates when power is applied to load.

INSTALLATION

CAUTION:  Before wiring or service, power to this time switch and  the 

equipment it controls must be turned off. Turning off the timer switch 

only will not prevent a shock hazard. Replace cover plate within housing 

before supplying power to time switch. Installation should be performed 

by a licensed electrician only. Before installing this product, read all 

instructions carefully. Remove protective cover panel within time-switch 

housing by removing screws located below timer face.

Dipswitch Configuration

WARNING: 

Failure to properly configure the dipswitch will result in 

damage to the unit and void the warranty! Before installing and wiring the GE 
Time Switch, proper configuration must be selected. This is accomplished as 
follows:

120VAC

277VAC (Default)

208~240VAC

ON OFF

ON OFF

ON OFF

ALL ON

ALL OFF

1 & 4 OFF

2 & 3 ON

Digital Time Switch

NOTE: For outdoor locations, rain-tight or wet-location conduit hubs that 
comply with requirements of UL 514B (standard for fittings for conduit and 
outlet boxes) must be used.
1. 

To mount the box, remove the timer mechanism. Push the latch at the 
top of the timer mechanism. The mechanism will release and pull out of 
box.

2. 

Select knockouts to be used. Remove the inner 1/2” knockout by 
inserting a screwdriver in the slot and carefully punch knockout loose. 
Remove slug. If the 3/4” knockout is required, remove the outer ring 
with pliers after removing the 1/2” knockout. Smooth edges with file if 
necessary.

3. 

Place enclosure in desired mounting location and mark the three 
mounting holes.

4. 

Drill holes for #8 screws using 1/8” drill bit, start screws in holes.

5. 

Place enclosure over screws and tighten screws.

6. 

Connect conduit hubs to conduit before connecting the hubs to the 
enclosure. After inserting hubs into enclosure, carefully tighten hub lock 
nut. Do not over-tighten.

7. 

Install in accordance with all applicable national and local code 
requirements. See Figure 1 and wiring diagrams.

8. 

To place the timer mechanism back in the metal box timer first hold top 
of the timer mechanism. Slide the plastic case into the metal box latches 
in the center of the metal box. Push the top of the timer mechanism until 
the metal latch snaps into place. 

GROUNDING: This enclosure has a grounding block on the bottom/
inside of the timer box. Screw in all ground wires to the ground block. 
A pool application does not require bonding. 

This enclosure does not provide grounding between conduits. When using 
non-metallic conduit or cable, connect the ground wires of all cables together 
with a wire nut. When metallic conduit is used, use grounding-type bushings 
and a jumper wire between each conduit.
