I need help wiring up a Quinetic 2 gang receiver switch

Ineedhelp · Aug 24, 2023

Hi All,

I am looking to install a Quinetic double gang in line receiver switch (QURS2W) in my hallway on the ground floor to control the lights in the hallway on the ground as well as the first floor.

On the first floor, I propose to pair up a 2 gang Quinetic switch.

The wiring is all old and I need a bit of help figuring out how to wire the switch up from the old two-gang switch.

The Quinetic switch has 3 ports L1, L2 & Live Line whereas the existing switch has 5 cables going into it (pictures attached)

Please could someone guide me as to wire this switch up.

Thanks in advance

Can you post a picture of the quinetic switch and relay? Front and back, showing the connections.

Usually a branded quenitic switch has no connections.... its just a transmitter.... the relay receiver has the L,L1 and L2.

You might find that that switch off the wall, pictured, is carrying 2 circuits. upstairs lights and downstairs light. Take extra care!
The red/yellow/blue is a two way.... the red/black is a one way switch

Can you explain exactly how you want the lights and switch to function.... I presume you have a 2 way system on the stair light already?

Hi, the current setup is as follows:

Ground floor: 2 gang switch which controls the hallway lights on the ground and first floor.

First floor: 1 gang switch which only controls the lights on the first floor. (pictured below)

I would like to be able to control the lights on the ground floor and first floor from each floor. Whereas currently, I cannot control the lights on the ground floor from the first floor.

So my idea is to install the 2 gang Quinetic inline receiver on the ground floor and have the wireless 2 gang Quinetic switch on the first floor
