Excellent timer switch so far
By Victor Duan
The timer switch I am talking regarding is the TI033/U 7-Day Programmable Timer Switch. It requires a neutral wire. Unlike TI032 or TI034, it has NO minimum wattage requirements so that it may be used to control a single CFL light. Also, it may NOT be applied to replace a 3-way switch. It may only replace a single-pole switch. If you want to replace a 3-way switch, you need to use a model that has a -3W (3-Way). Remember that all the Aube 3-way timer switches have a minimum wattage requisite of 40W, but they do not require a neutral wire, and they may replace a single-pole switch as well as a 3-way switch. All the Aube timer switches that do not have a minimum wattage requisite requires a neutral wire. BE SURE TO FIND THE CORRECT MODEL FOR YOUR USE BEFORE PURCHASE. My following comment (No. 3) may give you a hint as to recognise whether or not you have a neutral wire. (BTW: 3-way switches always come in pairs, meaning two switches control the same lights).

I've been using this switch for three weeks. Not a single problem found yet. Once you discern the three wires in your switch box (line, load, and neutral), it is very easy to install and program. A good thing I actually like is that you may program it to turn on any time before mid-night and to turn off after mid-night the next day. Some other timers will be messed up if you program it all over dissimilar days.

Switching it amongst a regular manual switch and an automatic timer is also commodious by pressing the cover for 3 seconds. If you want to temporarily turn it on or off under automatic mode, you merely hit the cover like a regular switch, and it goes back to automatic mode at the next programmed on or off event. The "on" or "off" will flash if it is at a temporary manual mode, which is the one that I don't like very much.

Wall plate is not included. You need to buy it separately. The timer switch fits into a general size GFCI opening.

Highly commend to use a multimeter to check the wires in your switch box if you are not sure which one is which, in particular if you have a combining switch box. Wrong wiring may injure you and harm the switch.

How to find the three required wires in your switch box:

1. Line is the power source (hot wire) from your switch box, commonly black color but not always. It will be connected to the black wire of the timer switch so that power will come into your switch from the power source. Line is located "upstream" to your timer switch. Voltage amid line and ground wire is 110-120 V whether the switch is on or off. Verify with a multimeter.

2. Load is the wire that allows power to go out of your timer switch to your lights, commonly black color but not always. It will be connected to the blue wire of the timer switch, and it will be located "downstream" to your switch. Voltage amongst load and ground wire is 110-120 V when the switch is on, and is close to zero when the switch is off. Verify with a multimeter.

3. Neutral is the wire that comes out of your lights (not switch) and is located "downstream" to your lights in the return circuit. It will be connected to the white wire of the timer switch. Not each house has a neutral, but if it has, the neutral wire is ordinarily white. If you see two or three white wires connected together by a wire nut, they are very likely neutral wires. Neutral wire is grounded, but it is discerned from ground wire in most houses built the last 10-15 years. If you see bare copper wires wrapped together, they are ground wires, not neutral wires. Since neutral wires are grounded, voltage among neutral and ground wires is zero. The only way to make sure your white wires are neutral and are not hot, is to use a multimeter to measure the voltage amid the white wires and the ground wires. Of course, you need to recognise your ground wires are in the right manner grounded by measuring voltage among the ground wires and the ground (should be zero).

Important: NEVER use electrical tape to connect wires in switch box. It is a fire hazard. Code requires proper size wire nuts.
ALWAYS cut off power supply from breaker before working on switch box.

Great switch
By K. Ohrberg
I installed more of these timers after a lighting guy employed one doing our landscape lighting. I've used Intermatic wall timers before and had them crap out on me. These switches are reliable, easy to program, and discreet when replacing a normal wall switch.

Excellent! Much better than intermatic st01c
By zhenjun zhu
I applied this to replace my ST01C, controlling a whole house fan. The ST01C has a problem that it would randomly reset the clock to 12:00. This is much better with a neutral line. It's also requiring little effort to program. Highly recommended.
