I'm looking to get some timers that will go right on my breaker box or
fuse box, or next to it, as simple an installation as possible, that
will put a timer on a circuit, so as to turn the entire circuit on or
off at pre-set times. �I'm hoping it will be small enough that more
than one can be used at the same time.
I konw they make timers in their own metal boxes that can be connected
to a fuse box with conduit or Romx, but I was thinking by now there
might be something smaller. �Maybe with a more complicated timer, like
setback thermostat timers keep getting more versatile.
I guess lawnsprinkler timers control low voltage devices, not 110
volts.
Any ideas, please?

I'm fond of the Grasslin timers because of the captive
trippers and simple design. I'm posting a link to one
that you can mount in a single gang handy box next to
your electrical panel. Several of them could be mounted
next to your panel on the wall.

no timers will fit in a breaker main panel, not enough space.

you will have to install a seperate box and timer, avoid the 2 wire
solid state timers, if a bulb burns out it looses what time it is,
same in minor power failures


You are telling me this, why?
