So... my sparky never clocked that there are two immersions on the tank, and has decided to start again from scratch. Maybe should have had a chat about what I wanted but it looked kind of obvious to me! Setup: 170l UVC with two 3kw immersions, property is one bed, one shower, and E7 supply. Holiday let so must be idiot proof. Lower immersion will go on a timer, overnight. Upper immersion will have a simple time lag boost button set to one hour. So far so good. The overnight timer can, I think, be something very simple indeed as I don't plan to mess around with it at all. In fact I will deliberately place it out of the way to avoid people meddling with it. The boost button is a bit tricker- I ordered a cheap one that looked the biz (one big button, no meddling, no confusion). It doesn't light up or anything though. I'd also like to future proof if I can, and be able to upgrade to a 6kw boost immersion- but all the boost switches I've found are only 13A or 16A. Anybody know of a simple one-button time lag switch that can handle a 6kw resistive load? Finally, can I just place an illuminated isolator switch after the boost button? That would give a visual indicator that it had come on. Likewise can the E7 timer have the isolator between the timer and tank? That would allow me to switch it off without interupting the power to the timer itself.
