I bought a photocell sensor on eBay after learning Lowes, Home Depot, and Walmart were either out of stock on them or did not carry them. No problem, I thought, 3 wires and it should come with instructions. It arrived, but with no instructions except on the little plastic part (see second photo). I am NOT an electrician, but usually can handle easy projects. If it had 2 wires, it should be easy, but with 3......that's a problem. I went online to instructables, Youtube, and a few other sites. Although I could not find anything showing what I needed, I did gather enough to attempt it. Here is my wiring diagram (third photo) and instructions:
CAUTION: BLACK WIRE IS 120 VOLTS, SO TURN OFF SWITCH OR CIRCUIT BREAKER.
Connect sensor's black wire to black wire coming from house.
Connect red sensor wire to light's black wire.
Connect all 3 white wires (from house, from sensor and from light) together.
I will learn you how to photocell sensor connection with magnetic contactor, photocell sensor installation and cover related topics Like
1. photocell wiring with contactor
2. photocell sensor connection
3. photocell timer contactor wiring diagram
4. Photocell connection with contactor
