Am I the only dude on the planet that thinks this drawing is nuts?

how about a simple--
R is 24V, BLK is 24V Common, Purple is the switch NC, White is the switch NO, and Grey is the switch common.

    Eh, the most complicated float switch will only have 24VAC, common, and a form C contact. They can only drawl them up so many different ways.

    lol...at least the English is close. Don't know why the color of the wires has to be in quotes.

    There was an error rendering this rich post.

    Of course you’re in a dark attic when it comes time to wire the stupid thing. My eyes can barely make out the difference between black and purple, and the wires are like 24 gauge or something. Anyway I saved this pic in my “technical” album. When I do the next one 8 months from now I won’t have to reinvent the wheel
