Change a 1 gang 1 way light switch for PIR from RS. Customer the idea that it had a lux meter on it and also a manual override just like a regular switch.

However upon fitting I can only say it's the most sensitive thing I've ever fitted. Followed the set up and lux levels etc but when screwing it back you can hear the switching turning on and off etc and then it won't work on a automatic PIR. It useless...

So, has anyone fitted anything similar? Need one that only switches the line as there is no neutral at the switch.

Not an expert but don't you need a N at the PIR?
 
Timeguard do one that works in a 2 way or intermediate arrangement and have manual override and lux setting. Fitted 2 and no issues
