I have the Intermatic T104 on my pool. It was installed before I bought this house by a professional pool company. The timer is legit for outdoor use but it (like yours) is housed in the steel box. Intermatic claims it's steel box is indoor/outdoor. Well...it ain't. The steel box will rust outdoors over time. Intermatic makes a plastic weatherproof box for this timer. I bought mine on Amazon for around $30. I recommend that you upgrade to the plastic weatherproof box. Also, you can install a GFCI breaker in your panel and wire the pool timer to that.
terminal 1 is line (incoming power) 2 is load (the first 110 going to pump) 3 is next line, or incoming and 4 is the second 110 feed or (going to pump) to make 240.... for anyone else having this problem, just look at the plastic cover that covers the terminals with the yellow print on it.. it shows you what is Line and Load.. Line is simply incoming power from the house, load is what goes to your pump.
g1 thank you for saving my rear end your after wasting the last hour googling and trying other methods yours easy to understand and worked perfect the 1st time!!! People don't read any further G1 has got this! : ) Thank you brother!
Your poles are T1 & T3=power in from panel. T2 & T4=load/wires to pump. The 2 reds ( you need to ID their purpose) but guessing across the internet I'd say also one each needs to go on T2 & T4 depending on it they are somethings needed to be one/off controlled by the timer or one red could be a pool light , the other red can be for a general purpose receptacle ( which would be a different combination) also that T103 is obviously different , you now have a 110V clock
from pump the green which is ground g for ground. goes to ground not on the t1o4m the other two wires which are 110 +110 = 220 one goes to 2 and the other to 4
(4) ok, reviewing ur video again.........bases on ur statement that the reds and blacks(power in) terminated together. One red each goes on T1 & T3. Allow me to re-caution you again about the need for Ground Fault Circuit Interruption(GFCI) protection.
The 110V clock needs a neutral wire taken to T-A. Now......Here comes the pain.... that clock isnt a weather proof model, u did'nt reinstall the locknuts on the conduits You have no GFCI protection based on the "your term fuses" , there is no service disconnect for the pump motor. That previous owner is an "electrican in his own mind" his Tork clock didnt look raintite either...Dude, your're fucking with electricity around water, u want to chance u and ur family/friends lives?
Call a pool company and ask for a reference on the licensed electrican they use, they will be experinced with pool installation. It looks like u have more issues then just a clock timer......*my posts star from the bottom up. Bottom line, Seriously, dont mess with something like this

Exactly what I was gonna explain to you what G1 wrote. Line 1 load 1 line 2 loads 2. 240 v
Make it simple. Power from the breaker is odd numbers. To the pump is even numbers.
Your poles are T1 & T3=power in from panel. T2 & T4=load/wires to pump. The 2 reds ( you need to ID their purpose) but guessing across the internet I'd say also one each needs to go on T2 & T4 depending on it they are somethings needed to be
one/off controlled by the timer or one red could be a pool light , the other red can be for a general purpose receptacle ( which would be a different combination)
also that T103 is obviously different , you now have a 110V clock
from pump the green which is ground g for ground. goes to ground not on the t1o4m the other two wires which are 110 +110 = 220 one goes to 2 and the other to 4
Lines go to power, loads go to pump....what's the problem?
you really should be using an outdoor timer and a GFCI.
Marette them all together and call it a day. Lol
First...go get an outside PLASTIC boxed timer
Second...call an electrician
Third...watch him

You're going to have to debug and label the wires.
Better yet call an electrician
What the hell? Dude change the title of this to “Why you should hire a professional for jobs”

So why are you doing this video? Just to endanger the general public??
