    I've a 110V project where I'll be installing a LE5504TD2A (a 110V version dimmer). Can I run a 240V 5512RFVP powered off the dimmer via the network, with no power connection to the relay, or must I use a 110V relay unit with it's power hooked up?

    You will have to use a 110V Relay unit with it's power hooked up.

    When connected to C-Bus with no mains connection only the C-Bus micro and essential peripherals are powered. This is to allow programming of the unit without a mains connection. The power for operating the relays is derived from the mains input connection on the unit and with out that being present the relays won't switch.

    Ok, thanks. Figured that might be the case but couldn't tell from the manual.
