IMPORTANT!
-
When making connections, observe all general electrical best practices including wire sizing guidelines.
-
The GPM-QP2FPD05-21 and GPM-Q2FPD05-21 modules can accept up to a #14 AWG wire. See the Branch Circuit Minimum Size of Conductors table on the previous page for wire sizing information
-
Plug a feeder breaker and a Forward Phase Dimmer Companion Module into the circuit breaker test panel. The feeder breaker should not exceed 15A.
-
Connect the output of the feeder circuit breaker to the INPUT screw port on the dimmer module.
-
Connect a supported type load to Output A on the dimmer module.
-
Connect a second supported type load to Output B on the dimmer module.
-
Connect the unused side of each load to the neutral bus bar in the breaker panel.
-
On modules that contain a neutral pigtail wire, connect the neutral wire to the neutral bus bar.
-
Apply power to the breaker panel (not shown in the diagram)
-
Toggle the feeder circuit breaker On.
-
To test, toggle the CIRCUIT POWER switches A and B to ON and verify both loads switch On.
-
Toggle the CIRCUIT POWER switches to AUTO and verify the loads switch Off.

pairing mode. Press and hold for 5 seconds to reset.
D;
Input Power Connection – Connect the 120V AC output from the companion
breaker to this input.
E;
Output Connections – The connections are labeled OUTPUT A and OUTPUT B.
Connect each output to a separate load. See the Wiring section (page 2).
F;
120V AC Connection – Plugs into the 120V AC bus bar in the breaker panel.
The voltage on this connection powers the module.
G;
Neutral – The model number of the module determines the type of neutral
connection on the module:
Plug-On Neutral – Positioned on the bottom of the module is a neutral
clip that plugs directly onto the neutral bar.
Pigtail Neutral – A neutral wire protrudes from the module’s rear and
gets wired to the neutral bar in the breaker panel
Features
- Each output can control dimming loads up to 300 VA (voltampere). See the Branch Circuit Minimum Size of Conductors table on page 2.
- All QOTM style dimmer modules are compatible with Schneider Electrics Square DTM QOTM load centers.
- Modules are forward phase (leading edge) type dimmers.
- Built-in energy monitoring; +/- 3% accuracy / 1 sec sample time.
- Communicates over the air using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology.
- Color LCD display for easy identification and load status.
Output Power Maximums
The table below shows the maximum wattage that the forward phase dimmer module
can handle. Use the table to determine the number of loads that can safely be
wired to each module’s output.
Dimmer Type | Incandescent | MLV | LED |
---|---|---|---|
Forward Phase | 300W | 240W | Not Recommended |
Important Information
To determine the feeder breaker’s size, do the following:
- Determine the wattage requirements of each load connected to a dimmer module.
- Sum up the wattage of all loads.
- Divide the wattage requirements by the input voltage. This will be the current being drawn.
- To determine the number of breaker panel spaces needed, add the number of spaces required for each circuit breaker to the number of spaces needed for the dimmer module
- Each circuit breaker requires one space
- Each dimmer module requires two spaces
- The total current draw from the loads can’t exceed 80% of the size of the breaker for that circuit. For example, with 15 amp breaker, 12 amps or 1440 watts.
- With a 20 amp breaker, the max would be 16 amps or 1920 watts.
- Do not add MLV and ELV type loads to the same breaker/dimmer module circuit. MLV and ELV type loads should be connected to separate breaker circuits.
- Doing so can cause damage to the dimming module.
ELECTRIC SHOCK! The 120V AC, 60 Hz source poses an electrical shock
hazard that has the potential to cause serious injury to installers and end-
users.
CAUTION! Risk of Electric Shock – More than one disconnect switch may be
required to de-energize the device before servicing.
IMPORTANT! A licensed electrician is required to install Savant’s
Companion Modules.

Installation into Breaker Panel
-
Remove power from the breaker panel by switching o the panel’s main breaker.
-
Position and install a circuit breaker into one of the slots in the panel. Press firmly until the breaker is fully seated on the appropriate bus bars.
-
Position and install the Savant dimmer module into the slot where it will be installed. Press firmly until the module is fully seated on the
appropriate bus bars. Typically the Companion Module(s) are installed alongside the circuit breaker but don’t need to be. -
Use the wiring diagram on the next page to complete the wiring.
Wiring
Use the appropriate diagram below when wiring the dimmer module, breaker, and
load(s).
