Hi, I have a dusk till dawn sensor to install, but it does not have any instructions with it.
Am I right in saying that the LI has to be wired from the live of the fuse box and the LO has to wired to light.
There is only 1 neutral terminal so do I wire both the N fom the fuse box and N from the light together.

Cheers

It will need adjusting to trigger at the right light level, with no instructions are you ok with this?

probably have one or two screwdriver adjustment knobs

usually two one that adjusts the on light level and the other for a time delay to stop irratic switching during intermittent lighting conditions.
 
I've never seen an adjustable zodion type photocell, which from the lablling on the terminals this sounds to be.

Can you confirm the make and model. If it's dusk to dawn it could be a PEC (photo electric cell). RF is right, they wont be adjustable.

Lot of manufacturers, but your principle is correct unless you wire it in 3core from a JB or the light itself.

Also, is it a Nema type or miniture block type? What are you switching and whats the rating of the "sensor"?
