Selecting the Right Dual Wall Switch

• Check your building wiring: most SA homes support standard back box size and 3-wire installs (Live, Neutral, Earth). Some products allow 2-wire installs for retrofit scenarios.
• Match the wireless protocol to your automation hub: Zigbee and Z-Wave support is common, but verify your controller's compatibility.
• Confirm the maximum switched current for your loads (lighting, fans, etc.).
• Consider pairing with surge protection for longevity in areas prone to power fluctuations.

Installation and Wiring Overview

Most Airlive dual wall switches are sized for direct replacement in a South African wall box. Typical installation steps (qualified electrician recommended):

1. Isolate mains supply; verify with a suitable test meter.
2. Remove old switch; note existing wiring configuration and photograph for reference.
3. Install Airlive switch per instructions. Typical wiring for a two-gang device is:

       
Mains ------- Live (L)      
Supply------- Neutral (N)   
      ------- Output 1       Light 1
      ------- Output 2       Light 2
       

Always follow the included datasheet and consult a registered electrician for final wiring in accordance with SANS 10142-1.
