1. Turn off the power to the switch at the main circuit breaker or fuse panel.
Installation
Important
All wiring connections must be made after power down to avoid personal injury and/or
damage to the switch.
This device is intended for installation in accordance with the national electric code and
local regulations in the United States, or Canadian electrical code and local regulations
in Canada.
If you are unsure or uncomfortable about performing this installation, consult a qualified
electrician.
The fixture controlled by the in-wall switch must not exceed 960 watts (incandescent),
800w (10A) resistive or hp motor. The switch is designed only for use with permanently
installed fixtures.
WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD
May result in serious injury or death.
Turn off power at circuit breaker or
fuse before installing.

2. Unscrew and remove the switch plate; then use a voltage tester to make sure that the
circuit is dead.
3. Unscrew the switch from the electrical box and pull it out with the wires still attached.
Hot Wire
Ground
Two or three wires will be attached to the switch: an incoming hot wire, which is black; a
return wire, which carries the load to the fixture and may be black, red, or any other color
except green; and sometimes a grounding wire, which is green or bare copper. There
may be other wires in the box, but you are only dealing with the ones connected directly
to the switch.
You may find a white wire that has black tape on it connected to the switch. This tape
indicates that the white wire is being used as a black or colored wire in the switch leg, so
it’s not neutral.

locat i o n s f o r the elec t r i c a l screw con n e c t o r s.
5. Attach the first wire you unscrew to the same-colored screw on the new switch as it was
on the old; do the same with the second.
Because the power is off, you can match up the connectors the easy way: Instead of
disconnecting all the wires at once and possibly getting confused, unscrew and connect
one wire at a time.
To connect a wire to a terminal, strip off about 1/2 inch of insulation, using a wire stripper,
and twist the end into a clockwise loop with long-nose pliers. The loop must wrap at least
two-thirds but no more than three-quarters of the way around the terminal screw. Hook the
wire clockwise around the screw so when you tighten the screw with a screwdriver, the
clockwise force of the tightening screw makes the loop wrap tighter around the screw.
