Weston Electric Photo control
|
Found this rare piece abandoned while enroute to a job. From what I could see it was used back in the 50-60's to control a string of incandescent lights. Very long gone sadly as all was upgraded to mercury back in the 70's and again to sodium about 6 years ago. This was never removed however was still energized and the fuse box next to it was still energized as well. Sadly the box was in horrible condition and would have likely crumbled upon removal so that was left. Luckily with permission I was able to bring this bad boy home. So far this is the only meter style photo control I've seen or heard of on our system. Also unique as this has a mercury switch inside as opposed to the normal open contacts seen in most.
