May 1, 2019 at 20:04	comment	added	ebeygin		My pump is a basic fountain 12v pump with positive and negative terminals. The pump is not needed in this circuit, in my use case, its always on to circulate water through the tank, but the switches are for a water solenoid valve (and that runs on 24VAC). When there is little water in the tank, I want to fill it up to the top. The switches will control when I fill the tank. My switches are basic switches with two wires.. i have no relays yet.. but i'm trying to build a system with two switches, one for sense FULL and one for sense low water (to know when to turn on water solenoid valve)..

May 1, 2019 at 18:16	comment	added	ebeygin		Sorry, can you expand a bit? I have very little electrical background. So I was told that for each water level switch, I will need a relay, because the switches them selves can't pass so much current that is needed for the motor to run.. so they will pass a bit of current to the switch, and the rest will flow through the relay... So are you suggesting, this basic 4 wire relay that comes with a water level switch will be able to SEAL in my connection on the LOW water switch?
