I would like to make a line interupter that monitors the incoming 240 V
AC line and turns off a 30 Amp Dryer, 50 A Stove, 20 Amp Refrigrator and
20 Amp washer line. The Dryer and Stove are 240 V lines and the washing
machine and refrigerator are 120 V lines. I would like the unit to stay
off if the power goes off and once it goes back have a 5 minute delay.
This will protect the LCD Panels on these devices. I have been looking
at a Time Mark Product and solid state relays. However, the Time Mark
240-160BR is not available and has no automatic resets. Any thoughts or
comments ?

Thank You,

Howard Epstein

The Time Mark Device which provides the voltage monitoring of the line
and a relay contact set is not available any more. I can build a time
delay of 5 minutes using a 555 Timer Circuit and I know of an Integrated
Circuit that will monitor the line. However because of liability I
prefer to buy a commercially produced UL approved product. I know the
time delay is available but not a 240 Volt line monitor with an output.
That is the crust of my problem.
