Hi,
I planned to install smart switch in almost all rooms. May I know if neutral wire normally available in the switch box for condo/service apartment in Malaysia?

QUOTE(fireballs @ Oct 3 2020, 01:36 AM) no. Ya. But if neutral available it will be easier to install. usually only live wire. you may borrow the nearest neutral or place your smart switch inside the lamp  QUOTE(Momo33 @ Oct 3 2020, 02:26 PM) switch box mean the 13 A socket in the room or ? In the socket. Target is to install in all bedroom and living room. what type of smart switch , for what purpose ? where do you plan install the switch. . cos some location on the wiring system are OK some are not . With smart switch, we can use alexa or google home to control the home appliances using voice or smartphone. QUOTE(yfyap69 @ Oct 4 2020, 08:38 AM) There are smart switch that does not need neutral Yes. But it will be easier to install if neutral is readily available. |

Thanks all.
I'm thinking to use other way to do it. There is xiaomi device that can control IR-controlled home appliances available in Malaysia. Maybe after tat will try the smart switch without neutral. |
