Warning: You should consult a qualified electrician familiar with all the local codes and ordinances when working with electricity. Before planning to install a PowerSURE Safety Light, you should turn off the electricity to the switch that you want to replace. Remove the wall plate cover and use a flashlight to look at the wires in the wall box. If you can't see them, then you may have to pull the switch out far enough to see them.

If no neutral wire exists, and there is no alternative device that can be used, contact a licensed electrician to have a new neutral wire run to the box. (See PCC Tech Tip #1 for more information.)

It will still work as a standard switch.
