How it's wired, terminal by terminal

  1. Switch a light, no neutral needed

    One circuit, no neutral at the relay

    The 1L takes only an active and powers itself through the light circuit. The Shelly Bypass comes in the box and fits across the light; LED lights need it. Sx feeds the wall switches, which return on S1 and S2. S1 and S2 are separate inputs, so a traditional two-way circuit needs rewiring. Up to 200 W, with no step-down transformers.
