Before You Install
Line Wire : A line wire is a wire carrying an electric current. If you keep your tester here, it will show indication when power is there. Load Wire: The load wire connects your light switch to your light fixture.It is usually attached to a brass terminal on the previous switch. It is sometimes black or red.
Neutral Wire: A neutral wire which normally in white color allows the switch to be powered while simultaneously allowing the lighting circuit connected to your lights to be power off. Ground Wire: Ground wire is a bare copper wire that provides a conducting path to the earth.
If the wires in your switch wall box are different from the ones listed below, we recommend consulting a qualified electrician.
Identify Wires By Color
Tip #1: An easy way to identify the wires in your wall box is by looking at the color.
White or Grey Green, Copper or Green with Yellow Strip
Black
Red or Black
White or Black
If Line and Load Are Both Black
CAUTION: Risk of electric shock. Do NOT touch any wires during this process.
After removing the face plate, turn the breaker back on. Very carefully, press the voltage pen against each wire. The pen will glow red when the wire is hot. The wire that causes the pen to glow red is the hot wire; also known as the Line wire. The wire that does not cause the pen to glow red is the Load wire.
CAUTION: Risk of electric shock. Before continuing with the rest of the installation process, make sure to turn the power breaker off.
Identify whether the switch is at the input end ?
Turn on the power at the circuit breaker and turn off the switch. (Attention: Do not touch the switch circuit or screws with your hands) Use a Voltage tester to check the black screw on the old switch.
If the detection result is not the line wire, then this position is the output end, the dimmer switch is not suitable for this position. Please turn off the power, reinstall the old switch back onto the wall, and then select the switch on the other end for replacement.
Note: If one of the two traditional three-way switches connected to the device malfunctions, you need to move the traditional three-way switch originally connected to the line wire to the position where the device is connected, and replace the traditional three-way switch connected to the line wire with a smart three-way switch.
