How is this switch wired or hooked up?

I was simply replacing one that was already in but not functioning. Attached similar with similar wiring. If you are converting a standard fixture with this device, it would be negligent of me to advise you, since I am not an electrician AND I don't know what you're converting. It's a great device when installed safely and VERY functional as you get older and grasping knobs and light switches becomes more difficult. Talk to some one at your local electrical store or a friend who knows/is an electrician. Sorry I couldn't help more.

Unplug the lamp first. Lamp cord wire is two wires sheathed in rubbery plastic side by side. The sheathing can be cut carefully down the middle & the 2 sheahted wires can be pulled apart. Or you can cut one of the sheathed wires with nippers & then pull the wires apart. Once cut & separated, ~1/4" is stripped on both ends of the cut wire. The other sheathed wire is left alone & is not cut. The cut & stripped wirres go into little jaws on each side of the switch in the middle. The jaws are screwed down to hold the wires. Tightening the screws takes 3 hands & is the only tricky part. The other sheathed wire goes in one side, around the middle of the switch & out the other side. It is held down on both sides by screwed down "hold downs". A spring goes in the middle, then the big button, then the outer shell holds it all together. Now plug in the lamp. Stepping on the button connects the 2 cut & stripped wires to complete the circuit, electricity flows though the wire & the lamp lights up.

It is designed to be wired inline (the wire is not severed) and to understand how to do so it is critical to look at the customer image to the right of the reviews and roll your cursor over the arrow for a valuable explanation. Then the installation becomes pretty straight forward.

Jon, I don't think I can do this by email but if you will call me @ 843-235-0568 with the device open and the wiring open I believe perhaps I could walk you through the wiring.

need to be wired. This product may not even meet UL requirements. the switch wiring is all bare metal without insulation. I bought here for $65, but Lowes sells for $40.

I never used the switch. Mine works okay. You must have received a defective unit. Return or exchange it ASAP

There is a fused link that can go to one side of a two terminal switch. Kind of like a light switch on wall. Easy stuff. Nothing complicated. Black and red wire. What are you using it on?

They are hardwired to the plugs. The unit is of very low quality internally. I bought 6 of them that I use on a switch panel 3-4 times a week and all 6 started started having switches fail after about a year and had to be replaced.

It is hardwired. I wired it in a new construction home. It can be made to be a plug it, but you will need a little electrical skills.Hope this helps. The light is not as bright as you would think.

Here is a link to a video description of how I have mine wired and set up. I figured I can take a few minutes out of my day to help you out with this. Hope it helps. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFQOC2s84Wk

It is meant to be hard wired but I installed a 3 prong plug on the end. It does not come with a switch.

yes it is a switch. You plug an Ethernet cable from a device that can provide dhcp addressing such a router or server, and this gives you multiple ports to plug in peripheral devices or computers.

No, it is all wired. Be sure to pay close attention to this wires during installation, it can be tricky.

Must be wired only for power. This is a simple set-up. I'm very pleased with it.

Angela, I wired mine in direct and it goes through a light switch, the nice thing is that it has a memory so you can turn it on and off without loosing what ever setting that you have it on.

There are no cords or switches. Its wired for 110 to run to an internal switch outlet.

It's hard wired. We've had it up in our kitchen now for several months and love it.

Ours is wired to one switch but we consciously made the decision to do it that way. You can wire it to two.
