Shelly Dimmer 2 - L inputs wiring

  • I want to use Cross-Connect with N wire case. (ShellySupport Wiring)

    BUT, comparing with user manual wiring scheme Fig 1 (UserManual Wiring) I have 3 questions:

    1. Can I connect switches directly to main L line, like ShellySupport case? (Is it not mandatory to connect switches L line to shelly L terminal?)
    2. There are 3 L line inputs at Shelly Dimmer2. Can I use any of them to connect L line main power, like ShellySuppor case? Or I have to use specifically central L input one, like User Manual?
    3. 3x dimmer2 L inputs are internally connected together?

    To your issue:

    1.: Yes, you may use the left sketch!

    2. and 3.: The three L terminals are connected internally. Thus, you may use one, two or three of them without regarding a specific rule to connect with live potential.
