Home Improvement Asked on December 23, 2021

I have purchased a 1 gang and a 2 gang smart switch with the back as thi 1st picture. The attached are the existing wiring points. Currently the single and 1 of the 2 gang operates the hall and the 2nd of the 2 gang operates the porch.

How to I wire them up?[single switch] the back of the smart switches
2 gang switch

OK, that looks like a typical Australian switch setup.

You have 4 cables:

  • two of them are power

    • one is power in
    • the other power out going places unknown
    • these two are the cables the connect to the short red cable that goes between the two switches.
  • then you have a cable with three wires that goes to one lamp

  • a cable with 4 wires that goes to the other switch of the 2-way,

    • and from there another wire that goes onward to the hallway light.

Unfortunately it doesn't look like the switches you have make provision for multi-way switching, or if they do it's on another page of the instructions.
