Title: Switch coming on in the middle of the night..
Post by: theRealHP on September 25, 2006, 11:24:58 AM
I've got 2 PLW01 on/off switches that are just connected to lights, and one of them keeps coming on by itself in the middle of the night. Any ideas what could cause that? Could it be some sort of radio interference?

Thanks!

More than likely it is a PL noise problem do a search for Powerline noise [/color] you'll find many helpful post that will help determine how to find the source and how to fix it! ;) :D ;D
