It may sound difficult to move a light switch without rewiring, but if you use a wireless kinetic product you can move the light switch as you wish. The wireless switch can be said to be a remote control that does not require batteries and wiring, it is freer than wired, and it is more environmentally friendly than the battery remote control. Coupled with its ability to meet the needs of intelligent life, wireless kinetic energy products are undoubtedly the most suitable switch on the market to promote the use of the current.
If you have some common sense as an electrician, you'll be able to do this yourself at home, following the instructions. It doesn't matter if you don't know how, the installation process is very simple and the labor costs are to some extent low.

How to move a light switch?
Wireless kinetic switches can't realize wireless control alone, so when we buy it we must buy matching, and buy the controller with it.
First of all, before starting everything, find the right tool and close the electric switch before starting to avoid electric shock.
The tools you require include:
- Wire strippers or pliers
- Screwdrivers from Phillips
- Electrical tape
Secondly, we need to realize that once the point switch is taken apart, the wires inside may be messy, so in order not to cause trouble for the follow-up work and to ensure safety, we need to Before unscrewing and removing the light switch, put a sticky note on each wire.

When you properly secure the wires, connect the wires to the correct terminals, and use the right tools, you can safely move the light switch. We hope you found this article helpful!
