- Disconnect Power: Before starting, turn off the main power supply to the circuit you will be working on at the circuit breaker.
- Identify Wires: Locate the Live (Input), Neutral (Input), and Load (Output) wires for your light fixture.
- Connect Receiver:
- Connect the receiver's input Live wire to the circuit's Live wire.
- Connect the receiver's input Neutral wire to the circuit's Neutral wire.
- Connect the receiver's output Live wire to the light fixture's Live wire.
- Connect the receiver's output Neutral wire to the light fixture's Neutral wire.
- Secure Connections: Ensure all wire connections are secure and properly insulated.
- Mount Receiver: Place the receiver in a suitable location, such as within a junction box or light fixture canopy, ensuring it is not exposed to moisture or excessive heat.
- Restore Power: Once all connections are secure and the receiver is safely housed, restore power at the circuit breaker.
5.2 Mounting the Wireless Switch
The wireless switch can be mounted on any flat surface using adhesive or screws (not included). No wiring is required for the switch itself.
