Hi all -
I am considering a timer switch for a bathroom ceiling fan, which is on a 15A circuit. The switch is advertised as 20A. Is it safe/correct to assume that this would work on a 15A circuit as well?
Here is the switch:

Reading the available online manual, it shows connection details for a 20A circuit, and what I assume is mislabelled as a 5A circuit.
I think it should be fine for my 15A circuit, but I thought I'd ask the experts here
