Use smart switch solely to control smart plug?

2020-11-11 23:06:55

Model: HS200

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version:

If I connect an HS200 smart switch to hot and neutral, and do not connect anything to load, can I use the switch solely to control a Kasa smart plug (i.e. HS103)?

Is it possible to configure a HS210 3-way smart switch, with a standard (non-smart) 3-way switch, so that both switches will control a smart plug (again, no load wired into either switch)?

@Altairus

To control the smart plug you wouldn't need to modify any wiring. You would install them as you normally would and set up smart actions: https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/2567/

You smart action would be "control with switch".
