FAQs
Does this module actually dim lights?
No, this is a 'dummy' module. It looks like a dimmer but only provides a basic on and off function for the connected light.
What is the maximum wattage this module can handle?
The module is rated for a maximum load of 1000W.
What type of wall plates is this module compatible with?
It is designed to work with Hager grid plates and comes with an adaptor for compatibility with various other switch types.
Can I install this myself?
Installation requires basic electrical wiring knowledge. If you are not comfortable with electrical work, it is recommended to hire a qualified electrician.
What is the color of the module?
The module has a white finish.
What is the MPN (Manufacturer Part Number)?
The MPN is SS-EN-08-PDG200-WT.
Does it require a neutral wire?
As a simple on/off switch replacement, it typically requires the same wiring as a standard light switch (live and switched live). A neutral wire is generally not required for the module's operation itself, but always consult wiring diagrams and local electrical codes.
Troubleshooting
Module does not turn light on or off.
Verify that the power supply to the circuit is on. Check all wiring connections to ensure they are secure and correctly made according to standard electrical practices. Ensure the module is correctly seated in the grid plate.
Module does not fit the wall plate.
Confirm you are using the correct adaptor if required. Ensure the wall plate is a compatible Hager grid plate or one specified by the adaptor's compatibility list. Check for any obstructions in the mounting opening.
Finish appears discolored or damaged.
Discontinue use of abrasive cleaners. Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth. Damage may be permanent if harsh chemicals were used.
