Time delay relay question
rawbe:
I may have goofed...I bought a time delay relay for my WG K7000 monitor and after reading some posts I discovered a couple of people recommending the DC relays. I ordered an AC. Will it still work?
Thanks!
MTPPC:
Insufficient information to answer question. Please ask again using proper terminology.
PL1:
+1 on more details required.
Relay part number, link to relay datasheet, power requirements of monitor, and how you intend to power the relay (AC line voltage or 12v from a power supply) would be useful pieces of information.

Doh! After I posted the question I went back and edited it with more info (tap talk app) and it didn't make the post. Sorry.
I ordered an AC 110V 8P 0-60 Minutes Range Adjustable Delay Timer Time Relay AH3-3 + Base. I plan on splicing my monitor's power cord and connecting the relay and out of relay into a power surge.
The monitor input is 120vac. I have never used a relay before so any advice is appreciated!

Nothing personal, but without a real part number (and manufacturer if possible), you are asking us to go on a fool's errand. :bat
I translate your generic relay description, no links, and no pics as, "I'm not interested enough in finding an answer to type in the actual details or post a pic, but maybe you bitches can guess and do my homework for me."
If that wasn't the tone you intended to convey, I look forward to helping you sort out the suitability of your relay for this application after you provide the specific detail(s) -- listed in decreasing order of importance in my earlier post -- that we need to ensure we don't give you mistaken advice that causes an electrical fire that burns your house down. :o
If that was the tone you intended to convey, good luck with finding someone to run that errand for you. >:D
