Hello

I have a few of these installed around the house and work absolutely brilliantly. Just wondering if below is feasible and how I would achieve it.

I have a fused switch that controls the outside lights wired as per below:

I would like to replace with a one gang Sonoff switch:

Is this possible? Any help appreciated.

Thanks
 
A no because its not got a fuse in to drop down from the socket circuit
And
B it doesnt appear to bear a genuine CE marking.... The spacing looks iffy id throw it in the bin rather than burn my house down
 
As above switch looks cheap, only way of doing it would be to install another box and come out of the fused spur into the switch then off out to the light, more than a DIY job to make sure its wired right. Its Doable for an electrician, let him provide the switches aswell.
 
The ITEAD Sonoff switches sell in high volume and are legit for CE. That looks like a T1 switch, you can see the test certificate here. (Link to ITEAD)

Good advice from @suffolkspark and @ChrisElectrical88 , you can't replace that spur with a T1, let an electrician fit it alongside the spur and sleep soundly at night.
 
pity. in was in wrexham yesterday. could have done that for you . still could but need to add £20 to normal rate to allow for the fact that it's 30 miles each way. pm me if interested.
