IMPORTANT: For 3-Way applications, note that one of the screw terminals

from the old switch being removed will usually be a different color (Black)

or labeled Common. Tag that wire with electrical tape and identify as the

Common (Line or Load) in both the dimmer wall box and remote wall box.

For non-standard wiring applications, refer

to Wire Connector and Conductor Size Chart

• Pull off pre-cut insulation from dimmer leads.

• Make sure that the ends of the wires from the wall box are straight

(cut if necessary).

• Remove insulation from each wire in the wall box as shown.

• For Single-Pole Application, go to Step 4a.

• For 3-Way Matching Remote (w/LEDs) Application, go to Step 4b.

Step 4b

MULTI-DIMMER APPLICATION

In multi-dimmer installations, the reduction of the dimmer’s capacity may

be required. Refer to the chart for maximum load per dimmer.

NOTE: No derating is required for LED or CFL bulb applications.

MAXIMUM BULB WATTAGE

Low-voltage dimmers are rated in Volt-Amps (VA). The maximum bulb wattage

is determined by the efﬁciency of the transformer in the low-voltage lighting

system. Transformer efﬁciencies will vary from different manufacturers;

consider 80% efﬁcient as average. Use the chart to determine maximum bulb

wattage for typical transformer efﬁciency ratings.

MAXIMUM BULB WATTAGE

Mark 10

Powerline dimmers are rated in Volt-Amps (VA). The maximum bulb

wattage is determined by the efﬁciency of the Mark 10

Powerline ballast. The

following table shows the maximum number of ballasts that can be connected

to a single dimmer for different Mark 10

Powerline ballasts. Also note that the

table shows maximum ballasts for multi-gang installations.

Lutron Tu-Wire

To determine total ballast load, add the line current found on the ballast label

for all ballasts in the circuit. This will indicate the total load for the control.

TO THE PRIMARY (HIGH-VOLTAGE) SIDE OF A MAGNETIC

LOW-VOLTAGE TRANSFORMER.

NOTE: The DH1KD dimmer requires a Neutral wire connection.

• Green or bare copper wire in wall box to Green dimmer lead.

• Line Hot wall box wire to Black dimmer lead.

• Load wall box wire to Red dimmer lead.

• Line Neutral wall box wire to White dimmer lead.

• Yellow/Red dimmer lead should have Red insulation label afﬁxed.

WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS

• Dimmer may feel warm to the touch during normal operation.

• When magnetic low voltage circuits are operated at a dim level, with all lamps inoperative, excess current may ﬂow through the transformer. To avoid possible transformer failure due to over

current, use a transformer that incorporates thermal protection or a fuse at the primary windings.

• Recommended minimum wall box depth is 2-3/4".

• Use this dimmer with copper or copper clad wire only.

• Use with compatible dimmable LED, CFL bulbs, incandescent or 120V halogen ﬁxtures only. For a list of compatible LED and CFL bulbs refer to www.leviton.com.

•

DO NOT mix bulb types when multiple bulbs are used with one dimmer. All bulbs shall be either LED; CFL or incandescent. Using the same make/model of each bulb will enhance dimmer performance.

• Leviton HomeKit-enabled accessories rely on Wi-Fi

communication. Increasing the number of Wi-Fi

accessories can affect Wi-Fi

performance. Consult the network’s wireless access point

speciﬁcations to determine the maximum number of supported Wi-Fi

accessories. For installations with a large number of Leviton HomeKit Wi-Fi

accessories, a high performance wireless

access point capable of supporting a large number of accessories may be required.

WIRING DIMMER

(wall box with load connection):

Connect wires per WIRING DIAGRAM as follows:

NOTE: The DH1KD dimmer must be installed in a wall box that has a

Load connection and a Neutral connection.

• Green or bare copper wire in wall box to Green dimmer lead.

• Load wall box wire identiﬁed (tagged) when removing old switch to

Red dimmer lead.

• First Traveler Line Hot to Black dimmer lead.

• Remove Red insulating label from Yellow/Red dimmer lead.

• Second Traveler wall box wire (note color as above) to

Yellow/Red dimmer lead. This traveler from the dimmer must go to

the terminal screw on the remote marked "YL/RD".

• Line neutral wall box wire to White dimmer lead.

WIRING MATCHING REMOTE

(wall box with line hot connection):

Connect wires per WIRING DIAGRAM as follows:

NOTE: The matching remote must be installed in a wall box with a

Line Hot connection and a Neutral connection. A Neutral wire to the

matching remote needs to be added as shown.

NOTE: Maximum wire length from dimmer to all installed remotes

cannot exceed 300 ft (90 m).

• Green or bare copper wire in wall box to Green terminal screw.

• Line Hot (common) wall box wire identiﬁed (tagged) when removing

old switch and First Traveler to Remote terminal marked "BK".

• Second Traveler wall box wire from dimmer to remote terminal screw

marked "YL/RD" (note wire color). This traveler from the remote

must go to Yellow/Red dimmer lead.

• Line Neutral wall box to remote terminal screw marked "WH".

• Proceed to Step 5.

WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS

• TO AVOID FIRE, SHOCK, OR DEATH; TURN OFF POWER at circuit breaker or fuse and test that power is off before wiring!

•

TO AVOID FIRE, PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, DO NOT install to control a receptacle, a motor, or a transformer operated appliance.

• To be installed and/or used in accordance with electrical codes and regulations.

• If you are unsure about any part of these instructions, consult an electrician.

•

Use with magnetic low voltage transformers, incandescent, or 120V halogen ﬁxtures only. Use a Leviton electronic low voltage dimmer to control electronic (solid state) low voltage transformers.

• Use ONLY with the appropriate Advance Transformer 120V Mark 10

Powerline or Lutron Tu-Wire

electronic ballasts for controlling the speciﬁc ﬂuorescent lamps in Fluorescent Mode.

• When retroﬁtting Mark 10

Powerline dimming ballasts into ﬁxtures that originally had Instant Start ballasts, the sockets MUST be replaced with Rapid Start sockets to allow proper

dimmer operation and prevent damage to the dimmer ballast. Refer to the instructions provided with the ballast.

•

The Decora

Smart

DH1KD dimmer is not compatible with standard 3-way or 4-way switches. It must be used with up to 4

Decora

Digital DD00R-DL remotes for multi-location dimming

• Maximum wire length from dimmer to all installed remotes cannot exceed 300 ft.

• Save this instruction sheet. It contains important technical data along with testing and troubleshooting information which will be useful after installation is complete.

Leviton’s Decora Smart

accessories are designed to streamline home

control with other HomeKit-enabled accessories. Apple HomeKit

technology provides an easy, secure way to control HomeKit-enabled

accessories using Siri voice control on your iPhone or iPad. After

installing your Decora Smart

Dimmer, conﬁgure it from the Leviton

Decora Smart Home app with just a few simple steps.

WARNING: TO AVOID FIRE, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH DO NOT

USE the remote for the control of high power heating appliances such

as portable heaters. There can be some unexpected consequences if

not used with care. For example, an empty coffee pot can be remotely

turned on. If that should happen, your coffee pot could be damaged from

overheating. If an electric heater is turned on by remote control while

clothing is draped over it, a ﬁre could result. This device will not control

lighting that is used with electronic low-voltage and high frequency power

supply transformers, nor high pressure discharge lamps (HID lighting).

This includes mercury-vapor, sodium vapor and metal halide lamps.

Decora Smart

accessories are ideal for living rooms, bedrooms,

kitchens, dining rooms, home ofﬁces, outdoor lighting or anywhere full

control of lighting is desired.
