Model: KP200

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version:

New to Kasa and not an electrician!

Hoping to installl the KP200 but have discovered that my single gang box is grounded and there is no ground wire.

Can I add a pigtail ground to the box for the Kasa receptacle?

Thanks!

@jeffreyropp Yes you can. The mounting screws will also ground it to the box.
