Installing Your Dimmer (Single-Pole Installation)

WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD. May result in serious injury or death. Turn off power at circuit breaker or fuse before installing.

  1. Turn Power Off: Turn off power at the circuit breaker.
  2. Remove Existing Switch: Remove the wallplate from the switch. Unscrew the existing switch and pull it away from the wall. Disconnect all wires from the switch.
  3. Remove Side Sections (if necessary): Bend side sections back and forth to remove them. Note: Do not remove outside side sections on dimmers at the end of a gang. A dimmer in the middle of a gang requires all side sections to be removed.
  4. Connect the Dimmer:
    1. Connect the bare copper (or green) "ground" wire from the wallbox to the green wire on the dimmer using a wire connector.
    2. Connect either of the remaining wires from the wallbox to either of the remaining wires on the dimmer using a second wire connector.
    3. Connect the remaining wire from the wall to the remaining wire on the dimmer using a third wire connector.
  5. Mount the Dimmer: Secure the dimmer into the wallbox using the provided screws.
  6. Attach the Wallplate: Attach the adapter to the dimmer using the screws provided and snap on the wallplate. If installing next to other devices, ensure the wallplate has the correct number of openings.
  7. Turn Power On: Turn power back on at the circuit breaker.
