Some have stated you can have master anywhere in chain, and a Lutron document states master dimmer, refered to as 'dimmer' should be on the load end of the chain. My master is motion activated, and I prefer the motion be at end of the chain. I can run a load to this location to my light. I have read somewhere that the dimmers and can interchanged in locations between master and companions.I purchased 1 x MSCL-OP153MH-WH (motion dimmer), and two companions (MA-RR-WH).I have traced all wires and gave them an ID letter, so I can exactly wire, as needed. If I'm going to run a new load to my lights, I want to make sure I get it right.Does the feed power need to start at the master or companion? Must companion or master be at feed end, or light/load end? Thanks!
