Wiring Diagram For Double Switch. Use a short piece of wire to connect the common terminal of the double switch to the common terminal of the first switch. Locate the neutral wires, which are usually white or gray.
Wrap the wire clockwise around the screw and tighten it securely. Turn on the power at the circuit breaker and test the switch. There are four wires connected to the terminal box of the ceiling fan with a light bulb.
Attach The Hot Wire To One Of The Brass Terminals On The Double Pole Switch.
Connect the wires, ensuring that the copper cores are fitted into the terminal. Connect them together and secure them with a wire nut. Once all the wires are securely connected, use a wire nut or electrical tape to insulate the connections.
Connect The Ground Wire To The Green Screw On The New Double Light Switch.
Make sure they are hooked tightly around the screw before tightening them back down. Once this is done, you can tighten the terminal screws which will secure the wires. If you need to, strip more of the cable to ensure a secure fitting.
Connect The Black Line Wire To The Line Terminal On One Side Of The Switch And The Black Load Wire Above It On The Load Row.
Turn on the power at the circuit breaker and test the switch.
Lastly, Secure The Double Switch In The Electrical Box Using The Provided Screws.
Connect them together and secure them with a wire nut. If you need to, strip more of the cable to ensure a secure fitting. Once the power is off, you can begin wiring the switch.
Ensure That Your Earth And Neutral Wires Are In The Correct Places Before Tightening Any.
Connect the black line wire (from the power source) to the black terminal. Connect one black wire to the top screw on the switch, and the other black wire to the bottom screw. As shown, the phase (line) wire is connected to both common screws.
Connect The Ground Wire To The Green Screw On The New Double Light Switch.
Using a wire stripper, remove about ¾ inch of insulation from the ends of each wire. If everything is working correctly, replace the cover plate. Wrap the wire clockwise around the screw and tighten it securely.
Locate The Neutral Wires, Which Are Usually White Or Gray.
Make sure there is enough wire exposed to make a connection with the terminal. Start by connecting the two switches together. Next, connect the l1 and l2 terminals of the.
Once This Is Done, You Can Tighten The Terminal Screws Which Will Secure The Wires.
Then, connect the common terminal of the second switch to the load. Restore power to the circuit and test the double switch to ensure it is functioning correctly. Connect the black line wire to the line terminal on one side of the switch and the black load wire above it on the load row.
