Would anyone know where to get the piggyback plug that can be wired onto a float switch for controlling a pump?

I imagine it is much the same as a normal piggyback plug but with two active terminals for the switch wire.

From an electrician....

Yeah but other than that?

Jaycar is a good one.

My point is that if you have to ask, you should get an electrician to do it.

Thanks Charlie.

Ok so after a lot of shopping around it seems there is only one place based in SA which sells what I am after and they don't sell the plug on their own. http://www.creativepumps.com.au/work/fl ... itches.htm I find it very frustrating how much the price increases with the length of the lead considering it will only be a twin active.

Has anyone found a float switch with an ELV sensor and 240v relay?

Can I ask what you're planning to do with it? Just in case there might be another way.

Lots of people here have powerful Fu when it comes to manipulating water.

I have my pump at the bottom of my fish tank. I want to use the float switch as a level switch so when my water drops below a set point the pump stops pumping just incase I have a leak in one of the pipes on the way to the grow bed. I've been running my system for about 2 years without a problem but just want an extra protection incase one of my joints or what ever fail. Would hate to come home to find a dry tank.
Thanks
