Many Caséta dimmers do not require a neutral wire, but ELV models require one for ELV loads, and some load types may have specific neutral requirements. Before installation, check the dimmer’s wiring diagram and confirm the available line, load, neutral, and ground conductors, along with the load type, wattage, and whether the circuit is single-pole or multi-location.

In-wall Caséta dimmers install in an electrical box to control hardwired fixtures, such as ceiling, recessed, track, or undercabinet lighting, and can support single-pole or multi-location applications. Plug-in Caséta dimmers connect to a standard outlet to control up to two table or floor lamps, making them useful when you want dimming without rewiring or cutting into the wall.

Caséta dimmers support single-pole installations for direct control from one wall location. For three-way and multi-location applications, installers can pair a compatible Pico wireless remote, use a mechanical or accessory switch where supported, or mount the remote at another location without pulling new wire.

Check the dimmer’s load type and wiring requirements, then confirm that the remote, accessory switch, or Pico remote supports the intended single-pole, three-way, or multi-location setup. A compatible Caséta smart hub can add app control, voice assistants, scenes, and schedules, while many dimmers support local control and remote communication without relying on Wi-Fi.
