A:  Hello! The MSCL-OP153M does not require a True-Earth ground to function properly.

If you still have questions or concerns, please give us a call at 1-844-LUTRON1. We're here 24/7, so you can reach out anytime, day or night.

A:  Hello Virgil, thank you for your inquiry. MSCL-OP153M is rated to control 120v for 600w incandescent/halogen lights or 150w LEDs/CFL bulbs. Unfortunately, the MSCL-OP153M is not compatible with low-voltage drivers.

A:  Hello, thank you for your question. The Maestro Motion Sensor LED+ Dimmer is not a relay-based device and therefore does not have an internal audible click when turning the lighting load on and off, just the subtle quiet sound of the Maestro's tap switch itself being pressed. See the below specification sheet for more information: https://assets.lutron.com/a/documents/369748.pdf We hope this helps! If you require further assistance, our 24/7 support team is here to help.

A:  Hello, thank you for your question. The Maestro Motion Sensor model MSCL-OP153MH is a standalone, non-smart device that is not compatible with the Lutron Caseta smart hub. Only Caseta Wireless devices are compatible for use with the hub for smart control.

A:  Only one of the 3way switches can be replaced with this. So just put it where you want it detecting the motion.

A:  Hello! The MSCL-OP153M can be placed on either the Line or the Load side of a 3-way application. Please ensure that you follow the installation guide when rewiring your existing mechanical switch if you are not using the MA-R companion dimmer for your other 3-way location. The wiring information can be found here: https://webapiaw1proddat01st01.blob.core.windows.net/assets/documents/368-4493_Page_10.pdf If you still have questions or concerns, please give us a call at 1-844-LUTRON1. We're here 24/7, so you can reach out anytime, day or night.

A:  Hello. We do not see any issue with using the dimmer to its maximum potential. We do recommend making sure the panels are dimmable. Since the dimmer would be loaded right at 150, there is potential for compatibility issues such as a flash when first turning on the light. We would recommend looking at the panel specs to make sure they don't recommend a different option or if they have tested one of our dimmers. We hope this helps.

A:  Yes it will, may need to be derated

A:  Hello! Yes, the MSCL-OP153M will fit into a standard two-gang box. Please following our ganging and derating instructions that can be found here: https://www.lutron.com/en-US/Service-Support/Pages/Technical/InstallationInstructions/Ganging-Derating/GangingDerating.aspx If you still have questions or concerns, please give us a call at 1-844-LUTRON1. We're here 24/7, so you can reach out anytime, day or night.

A:  I would suggest calling Lutron directly. They can best advise you on capabilities of current products and products that may be in development. To answer your question, though, I do not think their current occupancy sensor can work in 2 locations. I could be wrong and it is a great idea. I have installed these occupancy sensors in the laundry/mudrooms and guest bathrooms in my homes and they are awesome! Highly recommend.

A:  Hello! Unfortunately, this device is not capable of being used on both sides of a 3-way application. To use the MS-OPS5M sensor, you would place it at one end of your 3-way and use a standard On/Off light switch at the other end. If you still have questions or concerns, please give us a call at 1-844-LUTRON1. We're here 24/7, so you can reach out any time, day or night.
