  • A basic install of a standard float switch into our 2000l water tank. I've had some trouble with the float valve so I have decided to replace it with a switch.
    This is not a tutorial on how you should install it, just the way I did it!

    I'll do a follow up in the future to let you know if I've had any issues with it.

    2 hrs slumming on YT looking for an actual working example of how this switch works from a mechanical point of view. Thank you.

    Great video , black is common . Your brown isn't earth . It's normally open and your blue is normally closed.

    Brown isn't earth. You use blue or brown depending if you are filling or emptying the tank. You just cut off the one you don't use. No harm done though.🙂

    the brown is different type of connection not earthing wire
    you should disconnect it and keep it isolated.

    Please what's the name of the strapping tool you are using...

    Please the float switch works in two way, thus filling the tank using the blue cable with the black cable or emptying the tank using the brown cable with the black cable. The black cable is common to all of them...

    It's been about a year now. Did you have any issues? Any upgrades?

      woopsie... isn't the brown cable used to reverse the function of the switch? it should be insulated if not used, right?

    😢 Brown not earth. Poor guy working on it after you will get nasty shock. 😂

    Those switches is pretty useless as you cannot utilize your tanks full capacity
