Ok let's ask the gurus over here.

I am trying to accomplish the following:
My in sump skimmer is connected to P3 and that socket is assigned to a level control by which whenever level 1 is triggered, the skimmer turns off.

Now since my skimmer is in-sump, I noticed that whenever main power goes off and then it comes on, my skimmer collection cup overflows since the skimmer and the pumps all turn on at the same time.
I am trying to set up a logic by which when power comes on again the skimmer turning on is delayed by like 30 sec.
How can I achieve this?
Thanks in advance.

isn't it easier to use the "Blackout delay" of the socket?

I have it set up for 1 minute delay. But the skimmer still goes on at the same time. No delay!!!!
Any ideas?
