does this switch have a grounded neutral?

This is a three way switch and it wires no differently than other three way switches. You would be only be wiring hot (black), traveler (red) and ground (bare) to the switch.... The neutral (white) would not be involved with the switch. Not sure if that answers your question. Please study wiring carefully or use an electrician if you are unsure of how to install these.

No, only on a standard light switch. Old school type. Does work great. You could change out the flat switch.

I have been using the neutral wires in all of my installations. I'm not sure how it will operate if not connected.

It has five wires, BUT you need to have three wires in your box not counting ground (black, white,and potentially red) if you currently have a standard light switch, and this has always been a standard light switch, odds are you just have two wires (and a ground) which means this switch will not work for you (the box says neutral is required, but the amazon description doesn't mention this.)

sometimes they will not connect the ground to the switch but only to the box. On older houses they sometimes wrapped the ground around the incoming cables and locked it down under the holding clamp. if either of these is the case you can connect the ground wire from the switch to the box itself and it will be grounded. these switches have electronic components which may not work as well if not grounded in some capacity. also make sure the antenna is stretched out as much as possible. I fed the wire down thru a hole in the bottom of the box so it would hang out fully.

The short answer is yes. The long answer is that a light switch without a neutral wire will either not function or immediately fry if operated, depending on how modern your wiring. You will have great difficulty finding a light switch without a neutral wire. I imagine it would be illegal.

I no longer have that unit. It failed, but I believe it does not have a grounded cord.

No. It's basically a dumb switch. It sends a pulse to the primary via the traveler wire of a traditional three way set up and the main switch works the light. It needs the traveler,neutral and ground.

no. all it has is a positive and a ground wire. I wired mine directly to my back up lights.

To answer your question...No...this switch operates on 120VAC current with nuetral!

Yes it needs a neutral. You can use a #2474DWH which does not require a neutral, but you only have control over RF not over powerline.

Yes. It has no ground post. All your circuits for this fuse block must be grounded elsewhere.

Sorry, I don't know since I never tried to check a switch. Most switches have an indicator light to let you know if it is active.

Yes it does. There is a circuit diagram etched on the side of the switch. If power is lost to the circuit, the switch turns off and stays off.

Grounding the neutral is not allowed per electric code. The EI 600 model is the same timer but does not require a neutral wire.

I am guessing "NO" since I originally had the wiring polarity hooked up backwards and didn't have a reading.

No. Typically a lamp does not have a ground wire. The hot (black) wire connects to the screw for the center of the base of the bulb. The neutral (white) wire connects to the screw that makes contact with the threaded part of the bulb. If the wires are not black and white, the wire that leads to the larger plug prong would be neutral.
