5.2. Wiring the Dimmer

The Lutron Diva DVSCELV-300P-BI dimmer typically has three wires: a green wire (ground), a black wire (hot/line), and a yellow wire (load). Some models may also include a white wire (neutral).

  1. Ground Waya: Connect the green wire from the dimmer to the bare copper or green ground wire in the wall box using a wire connector.
  2. Hot/Line Wire: Connect the black wire from the dimmer to the incoming hot/line wire from the circuit breaker (often black or red) using a wire connector.
  3. Katundu Waya: Connect the yellow wire from the dimmer to the load wire that goes to the light fixture (often black or red) using a wire connector.
  4. Neutral Wire (if applicable): If your dimmer has a white wire and your wall box has a neutral wire bundle (usually white wires twisted together), connect the white dimmer wire to the neutral bundle using a wire connector. If no neutral wire is present in the wall box, cap off the white wire from the dimmer with a wire connector.
