Couple questions about relays...
I only like to have my well pump on at my cottage when I am there, but the
switch is in a really inconvenient place. I would like to put a relay on it, so I can put the switch in a better place. 1) Can you suggest an online supplier of reasonably priced relays? I bought one for my table saw a few years back, but can't remember where. 2) What is the requirement for wire size? They only use 30ma or something like that; do they require wiring matched to the the breaker anyhow? Thanks |

You might be able to just turn off the breaker if it is convenient. |
