Lutron Maestro Motion Sensor Light Switch, 2-Pack, 2 Amp Single Pole

The Lutron Maestro occupancy/vacancy motion sensor light switch automates room lighting, with single-pole operation and a 2-amp rating.

• Automatically turns lights on with occupancy and off when the room is empty — adds hands-free lighting control.
• Choose occupancy or vacancy mode and a 1-, 5-, 15- or 30-minute shutoff delay — tailor operation to the room.
• Daylight sensing learns your preferred light level — keeps lights off when the room is already bright.
• Supports up to 150 watts of CFL/LED lighting or 250 watts of incandescent lighting — accommodates several listed bulb types.
• Single-pole switch installs with a ground wire when no neutral is available — suits homes with that wiring setup.

Lights left on in bathrooms, laundry rooms, kitchens, garages or closets can be easy to overlook when moving between tasks. This Lutron sensor switch automates lighting in those rooms, including spaces used by children, so entering and leaving does not always require reaching for a switch. Its occupancy and vacancy settings let you choose how lights respond to motion and room use.

How does the Lutron Maestro motion sensor switch control lights?

In occupancy mode, the switch turns lights on when you enter and off after you leave; in vacancy mode, you turn lights on manually and the sensor switches them off when the room is unoccupied. Set the automatic shutoff delay to 1, 5, 15 or 30 minutes after leaving. The sensor also detects daylight and learns your preferred light level over time, keeping lights off when the room is already bright.

• Automatic on and automatic off are available in occupancy mode.
• Manual on and automatic off are available in vacancy mode.
• Timed shutoff options give you a choice of four delay intervals.

Which bulbs and lighting loads are compatible?

The Lutron Maestro switch works with CFL and LED bulbs, as well as incandescent, halogen, electronic low-voltage and magnetic low-voltage lighting within the listed load limits. It also supports 2-amp ballasts. The load ratings are up to 150 watts for CFL/LED, 250 watts for incandescent, and 200 watts for magnetic low voltage.

• Electronic low-voltage and halogen lighting are also supported.
• Single-pole operation only; it is not a multi-location switch.
• Compare your lighting load with the applicable rating before installation.

What comes with the Lutron Maestro switch, and what else is needed?

The package includes two 2-amp Maestro sensor switches. A coordinating Claro wall plate and other accessories are available separately. The switches match the Maestro product family for a consistent look with compatible family pieces.

• Installation can take as little as 15 minutes.
• A ground wire can be used for installation when no neutral wire is available.
• Choose a single-pole application for the switch.

Which rooms and routines suit this motion sensor?

The Lutron Maestro switch is intended for rooms such as bathrooms, laundry rooms, kitchens, garages and closets, where automatic lighting can help when your hands are occupied or you leave without switching the lights off. The adjustable shutoff delay and choice between automatic-on and manual-on modes let you adapt its operation to different room routines. Daylight sensing can keep the lights off when there is already enough daylight.

• Useful for household chores and home projects that take you in and out of a room.
• Automatic shutoff can help prevent lights from being left on after a room is empty.

This switch suits households looking for motion-based lighting control in single-pole rooms, including bathrooms, laundry areas, kitchens, garages and closets. Its two operating modes, selectable shutoff delays and support for several bulb types make it a fit for buyers who want to tailor how room lights respond to occupancy.
