Title:
A SMART SWITCH MODULE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A SMART SWITCH MODULE USING A STANDARD LIGHT SWITCH
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/144669
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A smart switch module and method of use is described herein. The smart switch module can comprise an enclosure, an AC input terminal, a DC output terminal, a control input terminal, an AC output terminal, all accessible from an exterior of the enclosure, and a relay and microcontroller within the enclosure. The DC output terminal can connect to a supply-side terminal of a standard light switch. The control input terminal can connect to a load-side terminal. The standard light switch can connect and disconnect the supply-side and load-side terminals. The relay can comprise a relay AC output, which can connect with the AC output terminal. The microcontroller can comprise a control input and a control output. The control input can connect to the DC output terminal and can control a state of the relay. The microcontroller can change the state of the relay upon detecting a light switch status change.
