Wattstopper RT200W electrical timer switch 1200 W 6.6 A 120 V

Plug-in timer switch 1200 W

This plug-in digital timer switch handles up to 1200 W at 120 V and 6.6 A, with a two-way contact form for straightforward load control. It is UL Listed and CSA Certified, and its IP00 surface-mount enclosure suits indoor installations. The compact white housing measures 1.69 in by 1.88 in by 3.28 in and fits standard receptacles. Homeowners and professionals needing automated lighting or fixture scheduling will find the eight programmable schedules easy to configure via the OLED display.

Sustained load behaviour

The unit is rated for continuous operation at 1200 W and 6.6 A, so it maintains its switching performance during extended daily cycles without derating. Advanced signal processing rejects RFI and EMI, preventing false triggers that could interrupt long-running schedules. The bright OLED remains legible over time, allowing status checks without opening the enclosure. No active cooling is required, and the solid-state timing circuit avoids mechanical wear during repeated daily switching.

Upgrade path and limits

This timer replaces mechanical plug-in timers that lack precise digital scheduling and EMI immunity. Installations using basic countdown dials gain eight independent programmes and a readable display. It is not suited for loads exceeding 1200 W or 6.6 A, for outdoor or wet locations due to the IP00 rating, or for three-phase circuits. Buyers needing higher current capacity, weatherproof enclosures, or hard-wired DIN-rail mounting should select a different device.
