If you are having trouble connecting your TP-Link Smart Switch to the network, it may be because of defective wiring or flimsy wires. Most likely, this problem will arise if the smart switch was manually placed. You might have connected to the incorrect cable. Look for any indication that the cables are not firmly and securely connected. This can trigger a circuit breaker for a device. To get around these issues, TP-Link outfits the smart switches with color-coded wires that distinguish between live, neutral, and ground lines. Additionally, they have wire coverings that can be utilized to protect the connections. Avoid installing the device yourself if you are not familiar with electrical wiring and connections; instead, contact a licensed electrician.
