    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This was confusing for me initially since it kept detecting a wire was live when i flipped the switch


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Turns out the breaker associated was not flipped but the controlling light switch is so there was still a tiny current


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    However dont follow my example and definitely verify the breaker is off and there is 0 current before proceeding

    The second was when i installed a new doorbell transformer to make sure i didnt get electrocuted


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
