Model: KS230 KIT  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version:

I had an electrician install the KS230 Kit to control the lights in my kitchen and they work perfectly. However, I have a 3rd switch that right now is a regular switch and has to remain on to keep the power on for the dimmers. I'd like to replace that one with a Kasa dimmer switch so that there are three dimmers for the kitchen. 

 

The question is, is that possible and which switch do I get?

 

It's wired like this:

KS230 Main > Regular on/off switch > KS230 Satellite

 

Thanks in advance!

This sounds like 4-way environment and not a 3-way.  To be honest the KS230 isn't supposed to work in those environments so I don't know how your electrician wired it.  If the switch in the middle is a single pole switch you can or at least might be able to use the HS200.  There will need to be separate wires for load and line and a neutral must be present.
