APPLICATION
This digital GE Time Switch (15132) is a universal, electromechanical time switch which can be field configured for various power supply voltages. The voltage options include 120VAC, 208/240VAC and 277VAC – all within the same unit! Selection of the desired supply voltage is easily achieved by positioning dipswitches on the printed circuit board assembly (consult Dipswitches Configuration on back). The mechanism is mounted in a NEMA indoor or outdoor enclosure and is intended for the control of lighting, heating, air conditioning, pumps, motors, or general electrical circuits in residential, commercial, industrial and agricultural facilities.
SPECIFICATIONS
Input Voltage: 120 VAC, 208/240 VAC, or 277 VAC in all units based
upon dipswitch configuration.

INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Before wiring or servicing, power to this time switch and the equipment it controls must be turned off. Turning off the time switch only will not prevent a shock hazard. Replace cover plate within housing before supplying power to time switch. If you are not comfortable installing this device please contact a licensed electrician. Before installing this product read all instructions carefully.
Removing Knockout
1. Select knockouts to be used. Remove the inner 1/2” knockout by inserting a flathead screwdriver on the inner most ring and carefully punching the knockout loose. Remove slug. If the 3/4” knockout is required, remove the outer ring with pliers after removing the 1/2” knockout. Smooth edges with a knife if necessary.
Please refer to Quick Start Guide for Examples and More Details.
Mounting of the Time Switch Box
NOTE - Before mounting be sure to remove knockouts for the wires, (see Quick Start Guide)
1. In order to mount the box you will need the 3 supplied anchors and 3 supplied screws from the hardware list above. (Anchors included are designed for mounting on sheetrock.)
2. Using the box as a template, mark with a pencil where the three pilot holes will be drilled.
3. Using the appropriate drill bit size, drill the pilot holes (Note that if drilling into wood or metal a specialized drill bit may be needed.)
See Drill Diagram.

4. For sheetrock; use a hammer to gently tap the anchors into the pilot holes.
5. Place the box up to the pilot holes or anchors and insert the screws accordingly.
Anchors Needed? No No No Yes
Wiring the Device to the Timer
NOTE - For outdoor installation use rain tight or wet location conduit hubs that comply with requirements of UL 514B (standard for fittings for conduit and outlet boxes).
1. Remove 2 screws retaining the interior cover panel and remove the panel.
2. Refer to Figure 1 and wiring diagrams to determine appropriate placement of wires. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that all applicable National and Local code requirements are met. If you are unsure of these requirements, contact a licensed electrician immediately.
3. GROUNDING: This enclosure is of plastic construction and does not require a ground connection. This enclosure does not provide grounding between
