Single-switch wiring

Removing existing switch
Before installation, you may wish to change
the paddle color to match your wallplate
or décor. Please return to section 3.
A. Shut off power to the circuit at
circuit breaker or fuse box.
IMPORTANT! Verify power to switch box is OFF
before continuing.
B. Remove wallplate.
C. Remove the switch mounting screws.
D. Carefully remove the switch from the
switch box. DO NOT disconnect the wires.
Up to five screw terminals on the switch are
marked:
a. GROUND — Green/Bare.
b. LOAD — Black (connected to lighting).
c. LINE (Hot) — Black (connected to power).
d. TRAVELER — Red.
e. NEUTRAL — White.
Match these screw terminals to the wires
connected to the existing switch.
E. Disconnect the wires from the existing
switch. Label wires according to the
previous terminal connection.
Installation
Wire strip length:
Strip insulation for attachment 5/8in. (16mm).
UL specifies the tightening torque for
the screws is 12lbf-in (14Kgf-cm).
F. Connect the green or bare copper
ground wire to the ground terminal.
I. Connect the black wire from the
light to the load terminal.
II. Connect the black wire from the electrical
service panel (hot) to the line terminal.
III. Connect the white wire to the neutral
terminal. Use a jumper wire if needed.
Often, the neutral wire can be found in the
back of the switch box. There may be
several neutral wires bound together with
a wire nut.
Note: The traveler terminal is only used for
3-way installations.
IV. Insert dimmer into the switch box being
careful not to pinch or crush wires.
G. Secure the switch to the box
using the supplied screws.
H. Reapply power to the circuit at fuse box or
circuit breaker. The blue indicator light under
the ON/OFF paddle should blink rapidly.
If the blue light is not blinking, first ensure
the air gap switch is in ON position (right).
If the blue light is still not blinking, turn off
the breaker, verify there is no power to the
Wi-Fi dimmer, switch the wires in the line
and load terminals, and tighten the screws.
Mount the wallplate and reapply power to
the circuit at fuse box or circuit breaker.
