Night Sensor instalation

[boxspace]

Hi All,

I have some outside lights that I would like to wire up on a night sensor that will come on when it goes dark. I am in South Africa. I have 2 wire that are coming to the lights, a Red and a Black. I have the Night sensor unit and there are 3 wire from it, L (I assume LIVE and for the red), N (I assume neutral) and a LO (don't have a clue what this is). Can someone help me to wire this, when I do it they don't come on. I have check the wiring and the lights work fine if I just take out the unit. Richard

your sensor will need as you say Live and Neutral for it to operate

the Lights will also need a neutral, how ever you connect the lights live to the LO from the light sensor

Please note this is how it is done in the UK

and the sensor looks like
