Hi there, would I be correct in saying that you can get 2 way dimmer ( dimmer at each end working against each other) but it needs to be a specific type, I think it's master and remote. Is there any additional wiring required and where would be the best place to get them
Thanks

I have just replaced a CU with split load and now the 2 way hall light trips the opposite RCD, existing PVC wiring. Bulbs removed.
I suspect a Line-Line insulation problem.
