Hi everyone.
For the house I am currently building, I will be looking to install light and roller shutter switches bought on AliExpress. The kind under an 86x86 square box.
For this, I wanted to buy simple Tuya modules that I will hook up to a Zigbee gateway.
And this is where the problems begin. I don't know how to hook it up, which modules to choose.
1) The switches I want to buy are 1 gang, 2 way. It sounds weird because it's like it's supposed to be a staircase switch, but they're all like that on AliExpress, no 1 way. I attach a photo.
2) The module itself. I have a choice of 1 to 4 way, I was just looking at the dimmer version, but the wiring layout looks the same. I attach a photo.
I'm not familiar with it and don't know how to wire it up. According to the picture, a simple matter:
L and N from the switchboard.
L1 and N to the bulb (the neutral wire from the distribution board goes to both the module and the bulb, right?)
S1 to the switch.
And this is where I seem to have a conundrum. It appears that only one wire goes to the switch? How is this supposed to work?
[Edit] I've added a drawing of how I see it. I don't know how correct this is. Especially if the light switch has an output for 3 cables, from what I saw in the auction pictures. Is it enough for me to connect under two?
I know this is probably obvious to many, but unfortunately for me. I would therefore be very grateful for any info;)
