I am trying to understand the feasibility of having a timer added for to my front exterior lighting.
i.e. something like this:
https://www.toolstation.com/7-day-electronic-lighting-timer-16a-8a/p28896?
It is currently wired so that it is switched on with either the switch by the front door, or the PIR.
Is it likely to be possible to add a timer at the consumer unit to set the lights to come on every evening from, say, 6pm to 10pm? Ideally this would be situated next to the consumer unit.
Or will it very much depend on how it has been wired?
[The red dot is the consumer unit]
Thanks.
