Hardware installation

IMPORTANT
For safety, properly ground the switch Always follow the code standards when installing wired connections.

Step 1
Shut power off at the breaker Find the breaker that controls the circuit for the junction box where the smart light switch will be installed. Turn it to the OFF position. Place tape over the circuit breaker switch and verify that power is off.

Note: you can use the circuit tester at this point to verify that power is cut off.

Step 2
Remove the original switch from the wall box Identify the neutral wire by looking for one or more white wires secured with a wire nut.

Note: If you can’t find the neutral wire, please open another wall box. If you still can’t find it, contact a professional electrician to help you.

Step 3 Label the wires
Mark the corresponding cables before removing the existing light switch. Always follow code standards when installing wired connections.

Note: All the images are for reference only and therefore, they must not be used as a standard.

North American color code standard:
White is for neutral, black represents the live and load wires, the green/yellow cable is for grounding and the red cables are for traveler one and traveler two.

Note: a single bare copper wire is also used to represent the ground wire in existing electrical installations.

Step 4 Mount the smart switch

• The installation only requires one smart switch per electrical circuit.
• Using the correct polarity, match each wire from the smart switch with those coming from the junction box.

Note: make sure that there is no wire exposed.

Single 3-way switch installation
Make sure to follow the wiring configuration:

1. Connect the wire ends of each pair into the wire nut, then twist each nut full turns until the connection is fully secured. Repeat this step for each cable assembly.
2. Neutral wire (white) on the smart switch to neutral on junction box.
3. Ground wire (green/yellow) on the smart switch to ground on junction box (ground wire may be yellow/green or bare copper wire depending on existing electrical installation.
4. Live/load wire (black) on the smart switch to live/load wire on the junction box.
5. Connect one traveler wire (red) on the smart switch to the traveler wire on the junction box. Wrap the other traveler wire around the end with black electrical tape for a single pole installation.

When connecting to a second 3-way switch

1. Connect the wire ends of each pair into the wire nut, then twist each nut full turns until the connection is fully secured. Repeat this step for each cable assembly.
2. Neutral wire (white) on the smart switch to neutral on junction box.
3. Ground wire (green/yellow) on the smart switch to ground on junction box (ground wire may be yellow/green or bare copper wire depending on existing electrical installation.
4. Live/load wire (black) on the smart switch to live/load wire on the junction box.
5. Connect both traveler wires (red) on the smart switch to the traveler wires on the junction box.

For safety, properly ground the switch
Always follow the code standards when installing wired connections. Gently push all the excess wiring into the junction box.

Note: make sure all the wires are positioned in an organized manner and away from the edges of the light switch and the junction box to avoid pinching any of the cables, prior to completing the process. Proceed to align the smart switch to the base on the junction box, so that it is oriented correctly. Insert the two center screws through the switch and into the mounting hole on the junction box. Secure the switch to the base of the box. To complete installation, gently push the faceplate into the box until it snaps in place.

Step 5 Restore power at the breaker
Turn ON the breaker that controls your smart switch to power it on. Make sure the status LED starts blinking rapidly. This indicates that the device has entered into pairing mode.
