Modern adaptations can somewhat ease our busy life, taking on some simple actions. An example is a one-week socket with a timer. You can buy it without problems - it is produced by many European companies. With its help you can control various electrical appliances in the house and apartment in an automatic mode. Like this - let's find out together.
Types of electronic weekly timer outlets
Today, there are two main types of such devices-mechanical and electronic. The mechanical socket, in turn, is divided into a socket with a daily and a weekly timer.
Both mechanical and electronic sockets do not require any additional wires. The device itself is equipped with a plug, so installing it in a socket does not present any problems at all. And to start the device this is enough.
How does the switch off timer work?
Before the first connection, the socket must be charged from the mains for 14 hours. Then reset all available settings by pressing a thin object on the CLEAR button. After that, the socket is ready to accept the new settings and start working.
Set up the timer-switch socket with the keys and buttons. The electronic socket, in contrast to the mechanical one, has an interval of switching on / off of the outlet in 1 minute.
The timer is completely independent of the mains, since it operates on batteries. With its help, you can simulate the presence of hosts in the house, that is, within a week the timer will turn the devices on and off, which is very useful for your long absence - for example, if you went on vacation .
With the help of the socket it is possible to adjust the operation of the devices for every 2 hours for 7 days, and the electronic outlets have a special mode, including devices in a chaotic order, which makes the effect of the presence of people in the house even more believable.
