How To Wire and Connect A Intermatic Pool Pump Timer - T101R

Timer wiring

I pretty much knew what I was doing but I played it safe than sorry and watched this video for a refresher and it made it more easy to understand how to do it. Thank you it took me a good 20+ minutes and I had my irrigation pump running again

Very informative plus nice and short! Thanks for publishing this.

This is a great video, thank you for sharing.
I followed these instruction for a pool filter and the motor started working, everything looked perfect. Since the start time was already met, I activated the manual switch, hoping that when the timer would have reach the off time needle, I would set the manual switch to off position and let the automation do the rest.
The motor stopped working when I came back a few hours later. I was not able to make it work afterward. The manual switch works great.
I tried another box, same wiring, motor worked for a certain time then stopped. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong please.

I have a 3 wire setting. 1 white - neutral, Black, and orange. The original unit used the neutral as a ground, the black for the line, and orange for the load. I rewired the setup to the original, because the diagram setup doesn't set the lights for a timing. They just stay on.

The red wire going to the neutral good idea to wrap it with WHITE! electrical tape.

So im installing a gfci where my pump will be plugged in. And the gfci is wired from the breaker.
From the GFCI to timer would be in 1 or 2?

I'm pretty sure I had a black single braided wire going to neutral, a black single braided wire going to line 1, and a red single braided wire to load.
I took it out to replace it and should have taken a picture but didn't.
Is that possible do you think I won't be able to install new one until tmw but don't want to mix up the wiring

Can I use a 20amp breaker for this t101 or does it have to be a 40amp breaker?

[tonycervantes]

Ok of red wire. You use like neutral with of white sr? And of second screws is of line come from of breaker ?? Or is of load ???

[maureenmurphy]

wire from the pump is red and black and from the breaker is black and white so should i put red from pump and white from breaker to a terminal

[circusitch]

Good and Informative. But please, speak up and hold the camera steady.

[PantherJagger]

is there any difference in the 220V hook up?

[rafaelsanchez]

Very good video probably you are not a YouTube like me but in a small video you made you provide the whole information, just a recommendation improve your camera and audio but excellent. Please can you recommend me a timer for a 15ft round above ground pool i have a heater pool and the filter, do i need a separately timer for each? do a heater pool is good to have a timer? or can i use the same timer for both? Thank you for your help and i will be waiting for your respond.

[kenturpin]

So I hope maybe you can help me answer this as I'm kinda stuck
I have your exact same box that runs a sign for my business and it was already installed when I bought the building but whoever run the wires from the sign to the box ran them way short and they were hanging away from the wall in a few places looking like crap so I disconnected and added the same gage wire the way it should be and it looks nice but as i rewired the box I put all wires back where they go but now when the box is on it's fine but when it turns off it throws the breaker can you tell me what I did wrong
Thank you for your time

[celebratingwheelchairlivin]

how do you connect a t104r pool timer? all other videos dont tell you what wire is coming from. can you help me?

[davebiner]

I`m replacing a 104R. Is it possible to replathe old 104R with a 101R?

[Gervacio]

Great explanation. Thank you. This timer can use with the water heater with 240v? Thank you!

[LubaLuba]

So in the red and white terminal you also have smaller white wire and next terminal you have another smaller white wire with the feed line what are the smaller white wires?

[merllhagard]

If you're using red as a neutral, fucking mark it with white, so the guy working after you doesn't get bit.

I thought if you set up pool pump to run at night it would cool your pool water considerably, night air circulating warmer water will eventually cool water way down
