A coworker asked me for some advice. This is a setup that was popular and installed decades ago. Relays in the basement that control 120v lighting circuits and low voltage switches in several places to control the relays. GE, Touchplate, and Remcon made the systems, although only Touchplate still does make parts.
Anyone with experience or suggestions?
I suggested he rip out the system and replace the relays with several GE smart switches he can control remotely by several means.
I think maintaining the system with relays will be expensive, and tossing good money after bad.
He may be limited in finding electricians who are familiar.
