Electronic Eye That Does Not Turn On the Light
Question
Hello,
In the garbage room of my building, an electronic eye was installed to turn the light on and off.
On Shabbat, the switch is raised so that the light is on all the time.
When entering, a kind of click of the electronic circuit closing is heard.
Is it permissible to enter the garbage room on Shabbat to throw away trash?
Answer
Hello
If it is not possible to completely disconnect the eye, it is permitted to enter there on Shabbat.
