Hello,

 

how do I connect the ground wire from the Kasa smart switch KS205?

my old switch doesn't have a ground wire but I see there are two ground wires at the screws at the junction box.

see photo above on the left.

do I connect the switch ground wire to any of the two screws with ground wires or is it a specific one?

thanks

I only see one green line in the picture. If they're both ground wires, connect either one to the KS205 should work.

 

It's better to verify these two green lines by using a multimeter or seeking guidance from a professional electrician.

@Wayne-TP


all junction boxes are grounded. The left box has two copper wires under the screws as shown in the photo but no ground wire coming out to the switch.

the 2nd box ( and 3rd and 4th not shown) has a ground wire coming out of the box and being attached my old switch at the bottom.

 

Can you verify if below connections are correct
