Fiber Shutter 2 installation with Jalousie 5045 switch

Post by chetk »

I bought a Fibaro Shutter 2 switch a couple of months ago and installed it behind the Jalousie 5045 switch controlling the shutters in the bedroom using a wiring diagram for the switch (attached below). Since there was not a neutral going into the switch box I tapped neutral from the light switch which was directly above the shutter switch. All was fine for a few weeks. Then my wife turned on the light and the Fibaro unit blew up. Its now a piece of charcoal. My question is: Does the Fibaro unit require a connection to neutral to operate?

Before I buy another unit I want to make sure I know how to install it safely. I've learned the hard way that what may make sense to me is not always correct.

So how exactly did you connect the Fibaro as the attached is not for a Fibaro shutter switch?
You say you connected a Neutral from a light switch. Normally there is no Neutral connected to a light switch, so was it just available in the box the light switch is located?
