The Lutron PD-5NE-BL is the Caseta Wireless ELV+ smart dimmer, built for the loads that standard smart dimmers struggle with. Its phase-selectable design can run in forward (leading-edge) or reverse (trailing-edge) phase, which helps eliminate flicker and buzz with electronic low-voltage transformers, magnetic low-voltage transformers and many LED fixtures and drivers.
Installation requires a neutral wire. Once installed it works locally from the paddle and rocker, and pairs to Pico remotes or a Caseta Smart Hub for app control, schedules, scenes, geofencing and voice assistant support. Power-failure memory restores the previous light level after an outage. Finished in Black; wallplate sold separately.
