Fused spur timer on a 1.5kw heater.

[Mister Banks]

I want to add a timer to a 1.5kw electric panel convector heater (Dimplex EVS150), is the timer in the link below suitable?

Thanks.

Thank you both

I thought it would be ok but I was confused by the statement regarding lighting loads being much less than an immersion heater, I guess that's the difference between resistive and inductive.

• Suitable for use with up to 3kW immersion heaters.
• Switches the following lighting loads: 750W incandescent or halogen lighting, 500W fluorescent lighting, 100W compact fluorescent lighting (cfl’s) and 200W LED lighting. Not suitable for discharge lighting.
