Maestro switches can control lighting from one location in single-pole applications or from multiple locations when paired with compatible companion controls. Depending on the installation, a switch can provide local on-and-off control or connect to a wireless lighting scene for remote operation.

Compare the switch voltage with the circuit, such as 120V for standard applications or 120V to 277V for dual-voltage applications. Check the connected load type and rating as well, including the 8A switch rating and, for motors, the 1/4-horsepower or 5.8A limit listed for applicable models.

Maestro switches can connect to smart RA2 Select lighting scenes, allowing remote control alongside compatible dimmers, switches, sensors, and other wireless controls. They communicate through radio frequency (RF) and should be installed within 30 feet of a repeater for system communication.

Maestro switches support loads such as LED, compact fluorescent, incandescent, halogen, electronic low-voltage, and magnetic low-voltage lighting, depending on the model and wiring requirements. Select models also provide on/off control for electric motors, with load limits that vary by switch and application, including ratings of up to 8 amps or one-quarter horsepower.
