You require a timeswitch with a changeoever contact rather than a simple on-off. You may find that your existing timeswitch already has this facility.

The terminals will be marked :- NC for Normally closed. NO for Normally open and C for Common.

C would be a Live feed. NO would be light A NC would be light B

Or of course you could reverse A and B

You could also do it with a changeover relay... (i.e. DPDT)

Thanks for the answer guys, that's very helpful

The contacts may be marked L1 and L2 and C.
