FCU and timer switch.

[Newbyspark]

Does anyone know if you can get a FCU and timer switch in one unit. Customer has a switched FCU off ring main powering some outside lights and wants them to be put on a timer. Any recommendations. Thanks.

Timegaurd for me used plenty with no problems Senate do a own branded one and it's cheaper but the same one.

use a control timer relay to switch the lighting supply

siemens or telemecanique do them

If your client wants the lights to come on at dusk and off later this would be a good option:

Why? It would be easier to do what the OP stated and use a fused spur time switch as there is already a switched fused spur that can be replaced.
