Got an outside light I want to be able to control from the phone, got a wifi switch which is asking for a white neutral wire.
Just moved to this house which was built in the 60s. The box it's in has white cluster of wires not sure if those are neutral or something else.
1. Are they neutral? Can I connect to those?
2. If not, can I ignore the neutral requirement or wire it differently?
