You can turn off 240Volt circuit by turning off 'one leg.'
240Volt circuit has two hot wires that come from breaker box, so 240V has two legs:
These hot wires are usually labeled L1 L2 in wiring schematics.

FD60 timer is usually SPST and has two wiring terminals, but some versions are SPDT and have 4 wiring terminals.
Cut L1 line in half, and put each end into FD60 terminal.

How to wire an intermatic t174 with a W433-1 TIMER FOR A 220 VOLT MOTOR

Verify that the clock motor is 220v. On the posts where the supply wires (line) and pool motor wires (load) they should each have a post for each of their two wires. If you do not have four posts, this is NOT a 220v timer.

240Volt requires 2 hot wires, but not additional neutral wire. Just cap the neutral.

The rain sensor should have it's own power source (for example plug into outlet, or use 1 Hot and 1 Neutral to supply power to rain sensor), and then wires from rain sensor connect to two rain-sensor terminals located on timer.
Do not connect power directly the the rain sensor terminals.

Hi! Please help me. I am having trouble connecting the wires from my dead 220v T104 pool pump timer to a new 220v T104 timer. The old timer had posts marked G 1 2 3 4. The new one has posts marked L 1 X...

Open following link for T104 wiring diagram:
http://waterheatertimer.org/How-to-wire-T104-Intermatic-timer.html

Your new timer is L 1 X 2, so that is not Intermatic T104.
You might have GE/Tork 15061 that fits into Intermatic box.
http://waterheatertimer.org/GE-timers-and-manuals.html#GE-replacement
First thing to check is if new timer is 240Volts to match old T104.

If new timer is 240V, then here is crossover:
"Old 1" goes to new L >> and notice that L and 1 are connected by brass bridge. If bridge is missing, add a jumper wire between L and 1 on new timer

"Old 2" goes to new 2

"Old 3" goes to new X
"Old 4" goes to new X

T104 Intermatic timer is SPDT single pull double throw, so it turns off both wires going to Load.
New L1X2 timer is SPST single pull single throw, so it turns off one wire going to Load, and that's why old 3 and old 4 both connect to terminal X.

If this is too complex, then add a comment or buy new trippers and a new WG1573 clock motor and repair T104 for $20.

I can tell you this. Line 1 and Line 2 are for the two electrical supply wires. If it is a 120 volt unit, these may be black (hot) and white (neutral). The two small white wires are connected to these two terminals and go back and connect this 120 volt supply to run the clock.
Then your "load" is whatever you are operating, like a pool pump. The two wires to that are connected on Load 1 and Load 2.
Your header says 120 volt timer, so it probably will self destruct on 240 volts.

I unhooked my timer to replace with a new one and dont remember which wires go where?

If this is an intermatic timer (yellow dial) the wires coming from the power go on the first and third terminal. The two going to the pump go on the second and fourth terminals. If this has a black and silver dial the line from the power box go on the first and fourth terminals and the load going to the pump go to the second and third terminals. These are for 220v clocks, for 110v clocks you will need to check the instructions that come with the new clock.

I have a T104 6 wires 3 from each source black red and white and 2 grounds When I removed the old timer A was used in the hook up So I am confused from left to right in the box which wire should go where...

I'm asuming you have 220V since this is a 220v Timer. See diagram at site:
http://www.intermatic.com/~/media/files/intermatic/products/instructions/timers/t104%20-%20english.ashx

Pay attention that the incoming circuit hots should be on 1 & 3 the same terminals that the clock motor leads connect to. Just to be sure it's a 220V clock motor, look at the back of the motor (it snaps out of the enclosure) and be sure motor says 220V.

How to wire 220v line side

Hello. There is actually a wiring diagram in the lid of your timer. With 220V you actually have two hot wires, each with 110 V. One hot wire is black and the other is red. Attach one hot wire to line 1 and the other to line 2. Joe

I set my T104R3 on and off clips to desired times and turned the timer on. At set time the timer went off, but the clock stops and does not continue and turn on at the desired time.

The T104 timer is miswired when it does things like that. The 240 volt clock motor is internally connected at the factory to terminals 1 and 3. That means that one of the incoming (line) 240 volt wires (pick one) _must_ be connected to terminal #1 and the other _must_ be connected to terminal #3.

The outgoing (load) 240 volt wires are connected to terminals 2 and 4.

The Intermatic wiring diagrams leave a lot to be desired. I wrote the following tip to help clarify intermatic T103 and T104 timer wiring, I hope it helps:

I'm trying to install an Intermatic T104R3 for my pool. What is the difference between line and load? Do you have a picture of how the wires should be connected?

'Line' means 'power in' and 'load' means 'output' to the device you want to control. Hook you power in 'HOT' wire to line and your 'load is the wires going out to the motor or lights or what ever. Follow the diagram on the door.
