Have you ever come home from work late and realized that your lights on the exterior of your home are not on? This can on occasion be unnerving since a well lit home is a great way to deter an intruder. When the house is dark it sends the signal out that there is no one home and that it would be a good house to break in and rob. There is a way to never have this happen again! You can have an electrician come out and install a time clock on your house to help keep your electronics running. There are two main types of time clocks but the benefits of having one are all going to be the same.
Sullivan Electric Services Lists Benefits & What Options You Have For A Time Clock System
Benefits Of Having A Time Clock Installed On Your Home: There are many benefits of using a time clock system to run your lights and other electrical outlets on your home. One of the main ones is you can have some security that when you are away at night the lights will still come on and make it seem like there is someone home. This is a great way to deter someone from burglarizing your home. Another benefit is that when you are out of town your electrical will still run like normal. During the holidays you may have ornaments out front that need to have electricity running to them. The time clock will be able to be set so that the lights and other ornaments come on automatically and shut off when you want as well. Another benefit is that you have lights as part of your landscape and exterior design. When they are not on, the look of your home at night is not complete.
What Is An Electrical Time Clock: An electrical time clock is a great way to have a more programmable system. They tend to be a little more difficult to program since the functions are going to be different depending on the type and style that you get. If you are not great at reading instructions you might want to call a professional to come out and set the timing up for you. The great thing is that you can set each day for a specific time to turn on and off the items that are ran through it. Be ready to set up the times on the device when the time changes or the seasons change depending on sun up and sun down. You want to be sure that your lights are on when the sun goes down to maximize the lights and other electronics.
What Is A Mechanical Time Clock: A mechanical time clock is another system that can be used to run whatever electronics are hooked to it but it is not digital. The majority of mechanical time clocks have a large dial with days and dates as well as times on it. The day is set and the time for it to engage and shut off. It is more basic and seems to be a little easier to set on your own although the installation still needs to be done by a professional electrician.
