Sorry for the long first post, I wanted to be as thorough as possible.
On my landing I have a 2-way switch setup, one of which is 3-gang, one of which is 1-gang, and I’m looking to replace them with smart switches. I’ve purchased a few BroadLink LC-1 switches based off the recommendations of...

Hi, I have a flat in a rather old building in London. Its subdivided into a few individual flats, and there is a meter board with a gas and electric meter in each flat. My electricity supplier sent someone out a few days ago to fit a smart meter, but the fitter said he was unable to do so...
I’m currently in the home-buying process, and some of the homes I’m looking at have Smart Meters installed. Thankfully, I live somewhere where we can easily opt-out and have an Analogue Meter installed by the utility company, so making that modification would not be too difficult. However, I’m...
Hi all,

I installed a Leviton smart switch in a 3-way circuit and the corresponding coordinating switch in the picture (right switch). The lights function as they should using both switches.

I purchased a no neutral smart switch to replace my current light switch, but I’m not sure if I’m able to wire it up safely...
The existing switch has 3 wires: L1, COM and Earth.
The new switch only seems to have 2 wire slots: L and L1.

Am I able to safely wire up the new...
I installed Halo LCR4, one circuit has 4 lights and another has 6. All lights are the same model.
Regular dimmers (phase control) don't work on these (found out the hard way).
There are several 0-10V dimmers, but looking for a smart dimmer that integrates with Google/Alexa.
Any suggestions...
Hello! I am trying to install a smart fan/light dimmer combo switch (Treat life). I have installed one of these before in another location of the house with zero issues so I didn't think doing another one in another spot in the house would be an issue for me. I full well know which are my fan...
I need to put in a new distribution panel for under floor (electric) heating.
Are there decent energy monitoring devices I can put into the distribution panel so I can keep track of costs? (especially given the soaring energy costs)
Ideally something I can view on my phone/tablet.
Thanks
Pictures of my current 1 way switch are below. I live in the UK and the other side of the small black box didn't have any writing on it.
Hi, I am very new to all this and wanted to know how to install a smart switch and which wires go where. Would all three of the neutral cables go into the N...
I've bought a ring wired doorbell and I've run in to a spot of bother trying to install it.

My grandparents are having problems after the installation of a smart meter (against my advice) and now the circuit breaker trips intermittently during the Day part of Economy 7 with no other discernable pattern.
Sometimes it will switch off after being toggled on again before a few minutes...
