I want to have fans turn on thermostatically when thermo reaches set temps.
I also want the ability to turn fans on manually.
Position 1 (AUTO MODE) power is sent to thermo and when it reaches temps thermo will activate fans
Position #2 (OFF)
Position #3 (MANUAL MODE) is sending power to fans (manually activating fans)
Questions:
Will this work correctly?
What happens in manual mode when power is sent to fans AND to theromstat? Or when in auto mode power is sent back to switch?
Here's my second Einstein attempt using a 3 way toggle switch!!
