A circuit (circuit A) powers my outside lights from a wall switch. I'd like to add a timer to also control these lights, getting power from circuit B to opereate the timer and passing power to the lights, while still being able to use the switch from circuit A to turn these lights on when the timer is not sending power to the lights. Can this be done? What will happen if the circuit A switch is turned on, and the timer is also sending power to these lights? Does it matter where the circuit breakers are located in the fuse box? Currently they would be on different sides of the box.
