    Outdoor occupancy sensor that does not require a neutral wire
    To StanFortyman

    I have an old house. The outdoor sensor stopped working. The new purchase was Leviton. It is a 3 wire system. But my system is a 2 wire set-up, with no neutral wire, so it will not work. How can I find a 2 wire replacement product? Or is there some alternative solution? Rewiring the entire system would be difficult and costly.

    Thanks. Stanleyshelter

    Good question, good notice to others that buy sensors to find there is no neutral available in the desired switch box.


    Here is a guide listing the available no neutral sensors from two popular manufacturers:
