Wiring a Love Temp Switch

(1/3) > >>

ndcube:
I got my TS2 and am going to wire it up soon.

Is it best to break hot or neutral thru the switch?

lonnie mac:
Hot side my friend... Think of it as nothing more than a fancy light switch.

ndcube:
Thanks.

One more question...  Does it matter which way you wire the thermister?  I assume the switch is just measuring the resistence.  There is a blue and a brown wire.  I can't remember if those things are one way or not.

lonnie mac:
You are correct my friend... It will not matter. What switch do you have exactly? And I hope you are not going off my old Brutus prints! (I am sure you are not) I had the early 2008 model. They changed it VERY shortly after the article came out and the later models are wired differently. I have other newer diagrams if you need that other nice folks have done on other forums...

ndcube:
Nope.  Just trying to go by the instructions and my memory from electronics lab 10 years ago.

I got the TS2.  I tried for the TS3 but it's back ordered until mid-January and I didn't want to wait that long.

A diagram would be good.  I just noticed it doesn't specify the order for neutral/hot on the power supply. I'm assuming it wouldn't matter...?
