To set AC time out, run 

gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power sleep-inactive-ac-timeout <VALUE>

In place of <VALUE> put time in seconds, e.g. 

gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power sleep-inactive-ac-timeout 3600

Similarly, to set laptop battery timeout, run 

gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power sleep-inactive-battery-timeout <VALUE>
