Installation SwitchLinc (Typical, 2-Way Circuit)
Note: For Multi-Way Circuit installation, refer to the Owner’s Manual.
1) At the circuit breaker or fuse panel, disable the circuit supplying power
to the switch
2) Remove the faceplate from the existing switch, then unscrew the
switch and pull it out from the junction box
3) Disconnect the wires from the switch you are replacing and ensure you
have 1/2” of bare wire on the ends
4) To correctly identify the LINE, LOAD, NEUTRAL, and GROUND wires,
enable power to the switch from the circuit breaker or fuse panel, use a
line voltage meter, then turn the breaker off again. See Figure 1 to
properly connect your wires to SwitchLinc.
Note: Mechanical switches don’t utilize NEUTRAL, but they are usually
available in the back of the switch box.
5) Ensure that all wire connectors are firmly attached and that there is no
exposed copper except for the GROUND wire
6) Orient SwitchLinc with the LED bar at the left, gently place it into the
junction box, and then screw it into place
7) Enable power to the fixture from the circuit breaker or fuse panel
8) Test that the SwitchLinc is working properly by turning the light on and
off
9) Reinstall the faceplate
