Pump switch

[Loz]

Hi Loz,

Thank you for this drawing I found here, while searching for a solution for my burnt out microswitch in the Cali tap.

But: I have always thought that the microswitch in the tap is only switching/interrupting the Minus (-) cable. Seeing your scheme now, it looks like that the two wires that go into the microswitch in the tap, are a Plus AND a Minus?

Is my impression correct, and are both Plus and Minus from the cable connectors under the sink going straight into the microswitch? Or is it only the Minus wire from this connector, that goes into the microswitch?

I hope to understand this right, because at the moment I don't know exactly how to wire in the relais. In other words: which wire should I use to trigger the relay, and where do I connect it to on this relay?

Regards from Amsterdam,

Marc.

Only the live goes through the microswitch , it is diverted to power the relay.

Thanks Loz. I have misread your drawing. I took the drawing of the existing tap connection as the situation inside the tap microswitch. Now see that it is a drawing of the male and female connectors underneath the sink.
