Installing your switch

Installation for lights with one wall switch (single-pole)

Turn the power off at the circuit breaker!

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

Contractor note :
For wiring diagrams, please visit www.casetawireless.com/wiring
Important note:
Some lights have one wall switch, while others have two or more wall switches (such as stair lights, which have a switch at both the top and bottom of the stairs). We’ve included instructions for lights with one wall switch (called a single pole). If your light has more than one switch (called a 3-way), please visit 0301710a_caseta advanced inst [PDF] for complete installation instructions and how-to videos.

Remove existing switch from the wall

Remove the wallplate from the switch.

Remove the switch and pull it away from the wall.

Disconnect all three wires* from the switch.

If your light has more than one switch (called a 3-way), please visit 0301710a_caseta advanced inst [PDF]

Remove side sections (if necessary)

The in-wall switch is ULR Listed for use with all magnetic and electronic fluorescent ballasts.
The maximum lamp wattage is determined by the efficiency of the transformer, with 70%–85% as typical. For actual transformer efficiency, contact either the fixture or transformer manufacturer. The total VA rating of the transformer(s) shall not exceed the VA rating of the in-wall switch.
