Description
Touch-Plate Zone-RP powered relay pack is a complete relay and power supply in one making it a great stand-alone solution for any lighting load that needs to be controlled from more than one location. These single point lighting control solutions can be used in hospitals, hotels, vintage homes and other projects requiring remotely installed relays for use with either unlighted or pilot lighted switches.
Remcon Retrofits
These power packs also can be used to update vintage Remcon systems when used with new Touch Plate switches. Replace old R-115 or R-115S relay transformers with these packs then connect new Touchplate switches to get your lights working again. This Touch Plate power pack should be installed on its own circuit, so be sure the switch is connected only to the local room switch(es) and is not connected to a master panel (with Remcon relays); ensure there are no shared common wires. too. Note that installing on a separate circuit means that Touch Plate relays and power packs must not be connected to any other Remcon relays or any shared common wires. Being on a breaker together is fine because the breaker is just providing the line voltage to everything that needs power. It’s the low voltage that they can’t share.
If there is not room for this pack next to the junction box, see the Mini Relay Power Packs for an alternative that is small enough to fit inside the box.

Installation
Wiring follows historical Touch-Plate colors: blue for LED status output, orange for cycle switch, and white for both commons. Touch Plate is a 2-wire system: the orange and white are for the switch control and the blue wire is for lighting the LED switches only (if using lighted switches).
