BTicino hails from Milan — known the world over as the home of
style. So who better to bring a new order of style to the home?
Founded in 1936, BTicino leads the evolution of wired devices,

And now, we’re bringing our passion and panache to the U.S.
Because, true to our heritage, we believe every home should
be a home of style.

Light switches. Electrical outlets. Coaxial ports. We use them every
day, in every room, in every home. And yet, they are routinely

system or a world-class home automation system, it’s time to
switch your thinking.

The supporting frames allow for the installation of as many modules as will fit in the space provided. in this case, 3 single module rocker switches are installed. The devices snap in place and can be removed using a screwdriver.
Should there be empty spaces, it is possible to complete the installation by using blank modules. This is useful where there is a possibility for future expansion of the system. in this example, one blank module is used in the center of the supporting frame.
The supporting frames allow for use of devices occupying the space of a ½ module. This is useful, for example, to install a single module device to which a 2 module cover has been applied. See the example in the picture.
A ½ blank module is available to fill in as shown in the picture.

plAcEMENT IN cIrcUIT:
The GFCI’s place in the circuit determines if it protects other receptacles in the circuit. Placing the GFCI in position A will also provide protection to “load side” receptacles B and C. On the other hand, placing the GFCI in position C will not provide protection to receptacles A or B. Remember that receptacles A, B, and C can be in different rooms.

UNIT DEScrIpTIONThe AXOLUTE Hx4420US Universal Dimmer provides dimming of various lighting load types. When used in conjunction with optional AXOLUTE Hx4421US Multilocation Controller, the Hx4420US offers control of a dimming circuit from multiple locations.
INSTAllATION OF bTIcINO DIMMErSMost BTicino wiring devices are modular so that multiple devices can be installed in various combinations into single gang or 4 inch square junction boxes. The benefit of this type of installation system is more flexibility in installing multiple devices and a reduced device footprint on the wall.
The one exception in the BTicino U.S. range is the Hx4420US Universal Dimmer. This device is what we call a monoblock and can only be installed as a single device per

Set up
Three or more locations application - Use with two or more Hx4421, for multilocation control.
Do not wire with conventional switches as part of a 3-way or 4-way switching circuit.
Install the Hx4420US universal dimmer and the Hx4421US controller, following the wiring diagram in Figure 2. The dimmer can go in either location. Use a 3-wire and ground cable to wire between devices (in existing 3-way switched installations this wire is already in place). The Hx4420US dimmer requires a ground. Be sure to verify the ground connection.

pROGRAmmABLE ThERmOSTATFlushmount, backlit thermostat hd/hC/hS4451
This programmable thermostat is a flush-mount device usable for heating and cooling systems and is fully programmable to allow multi-hour and multi-day settings. A standard program is already built in (but can be changed to suit the user’s needs) or a new one can be customized through a simple programming procedure.
A large backlit display allows the user to view the program, the conditions of the system and the indoor temperature at any given time. The thermostat consists of a base for the electrical connection to the system and a front face to allow the user to easily program the thermostat and replace the batteries.
TEcHNIcAl DATAOperating temperature range: 41 ° – 95 °FPower supply: 2 AA alkaline batteriesMinimum interval for program events: 15 minutesTemperature settings: 37.4 ° – 104 °FExpected battery life: 1 yearFlush mount installationCurrent rating: 5(3) ampsAn outdoor probe can be connected to monitor the outside temperature. Specifications: R(77) = 10 kBETA = 3435 – maximum length of the connection 5 metersThe thermostat can be activated by remote controls such as a switchboard, phone actuation, alarm system, etc.

System used only for heating with OPEN/CLOSE controlExample: motorized valve control – Open (NO)/Close (NC)
Heating and cooling system with ON/OFF controlIf you want to control both the heating and cooling system, set up a two-way switch for selecting Summer/Winter, as shown in the picture. When the season changes, set the two-way switch to the required position and switch over to Summer/Winter on the thermostat.
If it is necessary to lock the thermostat in place (e.g. public places), use the screw supplied at the back of the base.

BOX FiLL CALCULATiON
The box fill calculator is used to determine the number of wires and devices that can be installed in a particular electrical junction box configuration. Because more modular devices can be installed in a junction box than typical wiring devices, we created this guide to assist with selection and installation.
IMpOrTANT: Use a deep 4x4 junction box with TNC appropriate mudring for best and most flexible installation results.

general rules (see (NEc 314.16)1. gang fill: for each gang containing one or more devices or
equipment, a double volume allowance shall be considered, based on the largest conductor size within the box.
2. grounding fill: a single volume allowance shall be considered, based on the largest grounding conductor.
3. conductor fill: Each conductor that originates outside the box and terminates or is spliced within the box shall be counted once, and each conductor that passes through
the box without splice or termination shall be counted once. A conductor, no part of which leaves the box, shall not be counted.
