Installation
Important: Ensure the main power supply is disconnected before starting installation. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or damage to the device.
Wiring Diagrams
The switch supports two main wiring methods: with a neutral wire or without a neutral wire (single live wire). For single live wire installations, a capacitor is required.
Wiring with Neutral Wire (N-line)
This method is suitable when a neutral wire is available in your switch box.
- N terminal: Connects to the neutral line (zero line).
- L terminal: Connects to the live wire.
- L1, L2, L3, L4 terminals: Connect to the lamp wires.
Wiring without Neutral Wire (Single Live Wire)
This method is suitable when only a live wire is available in your switch box. A capacitor is required for proper operation.
- L terminal: Connects to the live wire.
- L1, L2, L3, L4 terminals: Connect to the lamp wires.
- Capacitor: Connect the provided capacitor across the first lamp wire (L1) and the neutral wire of the lamp.
Main Switch Installation Steps
- Disconnect the total power supply at home (make sure power is cut off).
- Remove the original wall switch.
- Align the bayonet with a word screwdriver and pry open the panel from the side of our main switch.
- Disassemble the wiring part of the main switch. Make connections according to the wiring diagram.

Troubleshooting
- Q: What happens if the light keeps flashing after the switch panel is wired?
- A: If no neutral wire is connected and no capacitor is connected, the light bulb will flash. Ensure a capacitor is installed for single live wire setups.
- Q: In the absence of the neutral wire, the touch switch panel does not respond. What's going on?
- A: If there is no neutral wire, a capacitor must be connected, otherwise the touch switch will not respond. Verify the capacitor is correctly installed.
- Q: Can panels be used with or without neutral wires?
- A: Yes, it can be used. If a neutral wire is available, connect it normally. If there is no neutral wire, a capacitor must be connected to the lamp circuit.
User Tips
