    Split Unit A/C Info

    Hi

    I have a 220 Split Unit A/C Unit connected to a 40amp breaker and control by an on/off wall switch. Is there any switches, sockets or modules available from Insteon that can be used to provide on/off functionality?

    Thanks,

    Not that I'm aware of. The maximum load on any Insteon compatible switch is 30 amps. You may be able to find a 40 amp relay with a 120VAC coil and use an Insteon controller (e.g., Micro Module) to control the relay.
    Message from Forum Admin: stusviews passed away in April 2018. Stu was a huge fan of Insteon and a huge presence on both the Smarthome and Insteon forums, helping thousands of us along the way (he had nearly 20,000 posts to his name). We thank him for his contributions, dedication, and passion for making the Smart Home a reality. He will truly be missed.

      Does the wall switch remote control a relay in the AC Unit or does it actually switch the 40 Amp circuit On and Off directly?

        Thanks [USER="33"]stusviews[/USER] views.

        [USER="52"]BLH[/USER], the switch is just a relay to control power to the 220 wall socket.
