permanently installed transformer supplied low-voltage lighting,

or in combination with incandescent lamps. To reduce the risk of

overheating and possible damage to other equipment DO NOT use

to control receptacles.

2. Neutral is required for all load types.

3. Install in accordance with all national and local electrical codes.

4. When no “grounding means” exist within the wallbox, the

NECR 2011, Article 404.9 allows a switch without a grounding

connection to be installed as a replacement, as long as a plastic,

4 companion switches.

8. Maximum wire length between the switch and the farthest

companion switch is 150 ft (45 m).

9. Operate between 32 °F and 104 °F (0 °C and 40 °C).

10. It is normal for the switches to feel warm to the touch during
