How To Install a Motion Sensor Light Switch to Turn the Lights On/Off Automatically | Lutron Maestro

In this video I show you how to install a motion sensor light switch also known as an occupancy sensor, so that the lights don't stay on in specific rooms for long periods of time while nobody is in them. This can help cut down on unnecessary electric costs.

I can't thank you enough for the detailed instructions, the manufactures are pretty limited and have to admit I wire it incorrectly the first time, didn't understand the silver wire was actually ground. Have replaced all switches in my house with no problem but this one was a bit different and overlooked installation of the silver wire ... all is working now and no more finding garage light on all night!!!

Yours was the 3rd video i watch and wish it was the 1st one. Best explanation on installing and programming. Now i have to go buy another one for my closet. Thank you for the clear instructions.

I just found my garage light on…a couple of days. I live alone & get distracted. I was going to update my light switches any way, now I’ll invest a little more. I really appreciated your detailed instructions & that you answer questions. Liked & Subscribed. Keep up the videos, really appreciated.

Well done without a lot of wasted time and video run over. Well explained. I'll subscribe.

Don't ask how I learned this...but I always test with my meter BEFORE turning off the breaker, and then after. Yes, a bunch of things had to come together for a hair raising result, but it's good to make sure the meter is working.

This could be the solution that I need to resolve a fridge problem that is very close to the light switch. Thanks

Thank you for the video, pretty helpfull.
I have a question: I only have, coming out from the wall, 1 black White, 1 White and 1 a silver wire.
How Do I connect those with the ones from the switch?

[robsaxepga]

This is exactly the switch I bought and exactly the wiring in my switch box. Thanks for the video! 👍👍

[BarbaraStellner-jikg]

Spot on - exactly what I needed. Loved the presentation - no nonsense

[Libby_-zohm]

This is very helpful! Thanks! I don’t have any white wires in the box. I do have a ground, 2 black wires and a red one. What do I do with the red wire ?

[strongjohn]

Thanks so much! I didn’t understand the guide but watching your video it works perfect now

Great video. I just installed the exact same switch 5 minutes ago and your video helped.
