[QUOTE="Razor, post: 489132, member: 32036"] I'm looking to use a sonoff wifi switch for some kitchen LED lighting so I can then use Alexa to turn on and off. Because there are 3 sets of lights they all plug into a 4 way extension lead so I'm only actually using one of the kitchen sockets. Can I cut the cable of the extension lead and fit the wifi switch? That way all the lights work using the same wifi switch. There is only a live and neutral needed for the wifi switch so could I just connect those and not touch the earth of the extension lead so the earth still goes from the plug to the socket end? Although inside I was going to put the wifi switch and loose earth in a waterproof box so hidden. Any help or suggestions please? Many thanks. [/QUOTE]
