Could be a stupid question, I have a single switch in my home that controls my 2 different electrical outlets in the eves of my home for Christmas lights. I bought the Eaton RF9601DW z-wave plus wireless. My hope was I’d be able to control my Christmas lights from my SmartThings app. I can’t get the z wave switch to turn on even after testing power. Is this because the Eaton switch is meant to run a light and not run electrical outlets? What would be my best option to get a smart switch on this that would run my electrical outlets in the eves?
Your wiring is not correct. I don’t see a neutral in that box, so you can’t use that switch - it requires a neutral. You currently have the switch’s neutral & (what I presume to be) load hot pigtail connected to the load hot wire going upstream - that won’t work.
