Before proceeding, ensure the main power supply to the circuit is turned OFF at the circuit breaker. Incorrect wiring can cause damage to the device or electrical shock.

The LoraTap RR500W module is designed to be installed behind an existing wall switch or in a junction box. It requires both a Live (L) and Neutral (N) wire for power.

Each diagram shows connections for Input L (Live), Input N (Neutral), Output L (Load), Output N (Load), and switch terminals S1 and S2.

1. Standard Switch Installation: Connect the Live (L) and Neutral (N) input wires to the module's input terminals. Connect the load (e.g., lamp) to the module's output terminals (Output L and Output N). Connect your traditional wall switch to the S1 and S2 terminals of the module.
2. No Original Wall Switch Installation: If you only wish to control the load via the app or voice, connect the Live (L) and Neutral (N) input wires to the module's input terminals, and the load to the module's output terminals. The S1/S2 terminals can be left unconnected.
