INSTALLATION & WIRING
WARNING
Disconnect power to the wall switch box by turning OFF the circuit
breaker or removing the fuse for the circuit before installing the RS-
100BA, replacing lamps, or doing any electrical work.
1. Prepare the switch box.
After the power is turned off at the circuit breaker
box, remove the existing wall plate and mounting
screws. Pull the old switch out from the wall box.
2. Identify the type of circuit.
In a Single Pole Circuit (see Fig. 2), two single
wires connect to two screws on the existing
switch. A ground wire may also be present and
connected to a ground terminal on the old switch.
CAUTION
For your safety: Connecting a proper ground
to the sensor provides protection against
electrical shock in the event of certain fault
conditions. If a proper ground is not available,
consult with a qualified electrician
before continuing installation.
Only connect the RS-100BA to a Single Pole Circuit. The RS-100BA is not
suitable for 3-way switching. If the existing wiring does not match the
description for a Single Pole Circuit, you should consult with a qualified
electrician.
3. Prepare the Wires.
Tag the wires currently connected to the existing
switch, so that they can be identified later.
Disconnect the wires. Make sure the insulation is
stripped off the wires to expose their copper cores to
the length indicated by the "Strip Gage," in Fig. 3 (approximately 1/2 inch).
4. Wire the sensor.
Twist the existing wires
together with the wire
leads on the RS-100BA
sensor as indicated
below. Cap them
securely using the
wire nuts provided.
See Fig 4.
• Connect the green or
non-insulated
(copper) GROUND
wire from the circuit
to the green wire on
the RS-100BA.
• Connect the power
wire from the circuit
(HOT) to the black
wire on the
RS-100BA.
• Connect the power
wire to the lamp (LOAD)

to the red wire on the
RS-100BA.
5. Put the RS-100BA in the wall box with the lens positioned above
the ON/OFF button (lens at top, button at bottom).
Secure it to the wall box with the screws provided.
6. Attach the new cover plate.
7. Restore power to the circuit.
Turn on the breaker or replace the fuse.
