[QUOTE="rsaeon, post: 2524299, member: 76792"] The switch would need to be bypassed, or made 'dummy' as the electricians say in their speak/lingo. So the socket is always powered on and you would control your appliance through the wifi-plug's app or the switch that's on the smartplug itself. Does it need to be wifi controller/connected? There are simple motion-activated switches on Amazon for a few hundred each but they work only with non-inductive loads like lighting, not fans. I have two of these sensors/switches for hallway/bathroom lights from 2018: [URL]https://www.amazon.in/Blackt-Electrotech-Sensor-Detector-Mounted/dp/B00ZOZI17A[/URL] That company, Blackt Electrotech, has good after sales service. They replaced a burned out switch for about Rs 150 after I used it in a non-recommended way (with an exhaust fan). [/QUOTE]
