dimmers are designed for installation in
standard electrical boxes. However, some of the installa-
tion methods vary slightly from traditional methods. If you
do not understand these instructions or are unsure of your
abilities, seek the assistance of a qualified electrician.
WARNING
To prevent severe shock or electrocution,
always disconnect power at the service
panel before beginning work.
3-Way
In a 3-Way circuit, Traveler wires
are the two insulated wires con-
nected to the switch that are NOT
the HOT wire that you identified
previously.
Single Pole
When replacing existing switches, label
wires before disconnecting.
Disconnect old switch.
Briefly restore power and use a line voltage
meter to identify the wires.
HOT or LINE (usually black) - runs from
service panel to switch
LOAD Runs from switch to fixture
NEUTRAL (usually white) The old switch
may not have used a NEUTRAL wire, but
it is usually available in the box.
GROUND - bare copper or Green wire
with or without yellow stripe
DISCONNECT power at the service panel
once you’ve identified the wires.

If necessary, cut wires and strip
insulation using stripping guide on
back of switch.
Connect frame ground wire and dim-
mer ground wire to bare ground wire in
box. Fold ground wires into back of box.
Mount frame to wall box with screws
provided. Tighten screws just enough to
hold frame in place.
Do NOT over-tighten.
TIPS
• Pre-fold wires into wall box to make it easier to fit them in the
box when dimmer is connected.
• Use caution to avoid marring wall surface with the metal frame.
Use only with Legrand adorne

system.

unit shall be properly grounded in
accordance with NEC and Local Codes.
Failure to connect the ground wire will
result in an unsafe installation that
could lead to personal injury.
