how to install a motion sensor light switch

stage 1

Turn Off the Power 

Distinguish the circuit to the light switch you'll be supplanting, and turn the power off at the electrical switch.

As an additional insurance, place a "Don't Touch!" sign outwardly of the circuit box with the goal that another person doesn't accidentally reestablish capacity to the circuit while you are working.

Stage 2

use circuit analyzer to make sure no power is streaming.
Test the Wires, and Remove the Switch

Expel the divider plate from the current switch, and test the wires utilizing a circuit analyzer -, for example, the perceptible caution analyzer - to be certain beyond a shadow of a doubt there is no power streaming to the wires you'll be evacuating. With our capable of being heard analyzer, a persistent signal would demonstrate that there is still power. The analyzer confirmed that the power was off.

With the power killed, evacuate the screws that hold the old switch set up.

Stage 3

realize the wires in switch by shading and use 
Cut the Wires 

The old switch has three wires associated at the back: a dark wire, a white wire and an exposed ground. The high contrast wires will be associated with the new movement sensor switch, however the ground won't be utilized.

Cut the wires at the back of the old switch.

Stage 4

wire stripper used to peel off plastic protection 
Strip the Black and White Wires 

With the old switch expelled, take the plastic protection off the finishes of the highly contrasting wires utilizing wire strippers.

Stage 5

wire connectors give a safe secure association 
Interface the Wires to the New Switch 

With the closures of the wires stripped, they can be snared to the new switch. Fold the finish of the dark wire over one of the wire associations on the back of the switch. Rehash with the white wire. Secure the wires with wire-connectors.

note:it had no effect which control supply wire went to which association on the back of the switch. Either wire could go to either association. Adhere to the wiring guidelines that accompany the switch you buy.

Stage 6

Tuck Wires Into the Box, and Secure the Switch 

Tuck the overabundance wire into the back of the switch box

Position the associated movement sensor switch into the switch box.

Secure the switch with the mounting screws gave

Stage 7

Redo the Controls, and Reinstall the Wall-Plate 

Note the redoing controls for modifying the affability and timing of the light initiation. On the switch, the base change controlled when the lights please after somebody goes into the room. The base decides to what extent the lights remain on after everybody has left the room. Set these controls to your preferring before introducing the divider plate.

With the switch introduced and balanced, reinstall the switch divider plate.
