Shelly 1L with 2 gang switch, is it possible ?

1. offizieller Beitrag

    Hello

    I have a couple of shelly 1L's that I want to install. The problem is that I want to install them in a 2 gang switch (1 switch that controls a ceiling fan and a light separately). I successfully installed Shelly 1L in a single 1 gang switch, but I cannot figure out how to do it with the 2 gang switch. It seems like I should have one more output connector in order to do that.

    The switch itself receives 1 Live wire and there are two output wires going out to the light and the fan. No neutral.

    There are some online guides about 2 way switches with the Shelly 1L, but none about 2 gang switches. Is it possible at all ? if not, then which other Shelly product can be installed with w gang switch ?

    Thank you

    Guy

    when you have two separate outputs , than it should be possible, but I recommend to use the shelly only for the light.

    The output for the lamp must not have any connection to the output of the fan. So like a dry contact. hope it's understandable what i mean

    SebMai - why do you recommand only use light? Is there any risk if also fan would be connected?

    If there are two lights controlled by this kind of switch (2 gang), how the connection on SHelly 1L should look like?

    first reason, both must always be switched together, because the Shelly1L only has one output.

    Second reason, some users report sticking relays, think that it is more likely to happen with a fan.

    Have you already looked at the connection schemes?

    If not, please do that.

    If you still have any questions, I'll be happy to help

    It works best if you make a sketch or photos as it is currently.

    I also wonder how you wire Shelly 1L with 2 gang switch, I can't find any wiring scheme for this.

    I have a 2 gang switch that controls two lights. The 2 gang switch has only 1 live in and 2 output wires going to each light. I only want to control one of the lights with Shelly 1L. Problem is, if I connect the switch to Shelly 1L, it will connect the live coming in to the switch to Shelly 1L. So to whitch terminal do I connect and can it cause any issue if Shelly 1L gets live both on L and on S?? from the switch?
