The `mochad` switch platform lets you control an X10 enabled dimmer/light
device.
To enable this sensor, you first have to set up the [mochad component](/components/mochad/) and then add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yml entry
light:
- platform: mochad
devices:
- address: a1
- address: a5
```
Configuration variables:
- **address** (*Required*): The X10 address of the light.
- **name** (*Optional*): The name of the switch. Default is: x10_light_dev_*address*.
- **comm_type** (*Optional*): pl (powerline) or rf (radio frequency). Default is pl.
