4. Setup and Installation

Follow these steps to properly install the Greluma In-Line Switch:

1. Disconnect Power: Before starting, ensure the power supply to the appliance or lamp is completely disconnected at the main power source.
2. Prepare the Cable: Carefully cut the power cord at the desired location where the switch will be installed. Strip approximately 10-15mm of the outer insulation from both ends of the cut cable, then strip about 5-7mm from the inner live (L) and neutral (N) wires.
3. Open the Switch: Gently pry open the two halves of the in-line switch housing.
4. Connect Wires:
   • Identify the Live (L) and Neutral (N) terminals inside the switch.
   • Connect the Live wire (typically brown or red) from the power source side to one of the 'L' terminals.
   • Connect the Live wire from the appliance side to the other 'L' terminal.
   • Connect the Neutral wire (typically blue or black) from the power source side to one of the 'N' terminals.
   • Connect the Neutral wire from the appliance side to the other 'N' terminal.
   • Ensure all wire strands are securely fastened under the screw terminals.

5. Secure the Wires: Ensure no bare wires are exposed outside the terminals. Double-check that the cable diameter is less than 6mm to allow for proper closure.
6. Close the Switch: Carefully align and snap the two halves of the switch housing back together, ensuring the cable is properly seated in the grooves and no wires are pinched.
7. Test: Restore power and test the switch functionality.
