How to connect a tap timer to my pump for watering lawn?

[Garrygaz]

I’m seeking advice as to what type of tap timer I could use that will turn pump on for 1 hour a day to water lawn via pop up sprinklers. The power switch I assume would need to be on along with the tap which is located alongside the pump as per photo.

G'day @Garrygaz,

Definitely no need to purchase anything else like a relay.

Did the Tapo work OK in the kitchen?

At this point something worries me and it's related to the pump! and I was considering asking some questions.

That is a older pump with pressure gauge and... it even has a plumbed water connection with shut-off tap.

Are you able to identify the make & model because I am starting to suspect the age of the pump could mean the motor has minimal or no RFI suppression which it triggering the Tapo to turn ON.

For now I suggest putting a hold on the wi-fi extender.

Cheers
