Intermatic GM40AVE – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Intermatic GM40AVE time switch work on 208V or 277V lighting, or do I need a different model?
One model covers it. The GM40AVE is autovoltage, running on anything from 120 to 277 VAC at 50/60 Hz, so the same unit goes on a 120V circuit, a 208V circuit or a 277V commercial lighting branch without changing a selector or stocking separate part numbers.
2) Can I mount the Intermatic GM40AVE time control outdoors on a building exterior?
Yes. It ships in an outdoor Type 3R plastic enclosure with a lockable hasp, and the control is rated from -40 F to 131 F (-40 C to 55 C), so an exterior wall in a cold climate is within range. No separate weatherproof box is needed.
3) How much load can the GM40AVE switch, and does the rating change on the normally closed side?
Yes, and this catches people out. On the normally open contacts it carries 40 A resistive at 120-277 VAC. On the normally closed contacts it drops to 30 A resistive at 120 VAC. Tungsten (incandescent) loads are much lower again: 15 A at 120 VAC on the NO side, only 2 A at 120 VAC on the NC side. Size the circuit to the contact set you are actually wiring to.
4) Can this Intermatic timer run a pump or fan motor directly, or do I need a contactor?
It will switch a motor directly within its ratings: 1 HP at 120 VAC (16 FLA, 90 LRA), or 2 HP at 208-277 VAC (12 FLA, 52 LRA), 50/60 Hz. Compare your motor nameplate full-load and locked-rotor amps against those figures. Anything above them needs a contactor with the timer driving the coil.
5) Can one GM40AVE control two separate lighting circuits?
It handles two circuits. The switch is DPDT, giving two normally open and two normally closed contacts, so you can schedule two loads on the same program or wire one load to make while another breaks. Note the NO and NC sides have different current ratings, so the two circuits are not interchangeable at full 40 A.
6) What is the shortest on time I can program on the Intermatic GM40AVE?
One minute is the floor, and the longest single on or off period is 23 hours and 59 minutes. Programming runs on a 24-hour, 7-day cycle with 20 setpoints, so you can set different schedules for weekdays and weekends. For anything shorter than a minute, such as a cycling timer, this is the wrong device.
7) Will I have to reprogram the timer after a power outage at the building?
No. A lithium battery backup holds the program and the clock for up to 7 years of protection, so after an outage the schedule picks up where it left off without a site visit to re-enter setpoints.
8) Can maintenance staff turn the load on manually without wrecking the schedule?
Yes. The GM40AVE has a manual override with load status indication, so a technician can force the load on or off for testing or an after-hours event and the programmed schedule resumes on its own. The lockable hasp on the enclosure keeps that override out of unauthorized hands.
9) How much wall space do I need for the Intermatic GM40AVE enclosure?
The housing measures 225.6 mm by 167.9 mm by 76.2 mm (roughly 8.9 x 6.6 x 3 inches). Allow clearance beyond that for the hinged cover to swing and for conduit entry.
