I want to fit a Trailing Edge Pull Cord Dimmer Switch in the bathroom with 2 dimmable LED bulbs.
LED dimming range is 5-100w for the switch.
Light fitting takes two bulbs.
What is the Max Wattage of each dimmable LED bulb that I can safely use?
Thanks, John.
Probably a silly question as I haven’t come across it yet.
On a 2 way switch I assume a dimmable lamp will work ok with 1 switch on a dimmer and the other on a normal light switch? So no dim when the normal light switch is pressed (just on/off) but when the dimmer switch is used the light will...
Novice here wondering what I might be missing. Thanks for any help.
I am swapping out an old switch in the bathroom to a dimmer switch. When I did so, I found out the Lutron switch I purchased, doesn't have the screws on the side that I'm used to. It has it's own wires coming out. I was...
our dimmer switch stopped working after 7 years so went to replace it at the weekend. When I opened it up, the black wire was in the common slot and the red wire was in L1 which i thought odd because i thought it needed to be the other way around. Anyway as it had worked for so long that way...
I have a led panel that i want to dim. It is dimmable but without a dimmable driver.
I have a dimmer module and a dimmer switch as shown in the foto.
Can anyone sketch me a diagram on how to wire the bits together.
Thanks.
Hi
Total novi e but have wired multiple light switches previously and survived :)
I've bought a nice WiFi enabled dinner switch for a new LED light - the wiring manual says it requires a neutral to be able to function- as you will see from my photo the current switch has COM and L1 and all...
Wrong forum? U.S. here. If yes...my apology.
Naively, I thought the number of wires, and the the wire colors, would match. House was built in 1989 in California.
Thank you....
Is it possible for a single dimmer switch to control two circuits, one which dims and the other which is a discrete on/off? I would like to be able to dim downlights while also switching a non-dimmable bathroom mirror on/off from one switch.
Many thanks
Hello. The variable speed switch on our old jacuzzi recently broke. The 120V 11.5amp 50/60hz motor is still functional but parts are no longer available. I tied the switch wires (see pic) and was able to control the speed using a 120v 60hz household dimmer placed directly on the line feeding the...
I successfully installed one new dimmer switch today, but ran into an issue with the second. There are two one-way switches: one switch operates the light of our ceiling fan and another switch operates the fan. I want to change out the light switch to install a dimmer on it. When I examined the...
Hi,
Would like to change existing single pole light switch to attached dimmer switch. I have a live and neutral coming from consumer unit, and live and neutral going to the ceiling light. Both earth cables are joined together. As the dimmer only has three terminals, how do I connect the wiring...
Evening all....
My son is 14, he seems to be taking ultra long baths and showers and the bath/shower room is drenched afterwards.
I have just bought a pretty good inline fan and was planning on fitting it on its own switch as the existing lights are on a dimmer. I would love the fan to come on...
I'm looking for advice on a dimmer to use with this light (Layla - 25 light LED pendant). Normal led dimmer doesn't work, I guess because there are too many led bulbs. Advice/suggestions welcome. Thanks.

Hi,
I currently have 4 JCC LED down lights in my bathroom with a 2 gang dimmer on the outside.
The first dimmer switch controls the LEDs and the second is just a push on and off for the bathroom fan.
The current module for dimming the LEDs is a BG TRAILING EDGE DMTR. When this is down low...
Recently renovated a covered back porch for a customer. Used 12/2 wire on a single 20 amp breaker. The first fixture was a gfci, then a switch (controls 2 ceiling fans), then another receptacle, then a long run to the other side of the porch, about 40 ft. Halfway across that run I spliced in a...
Hello everyone. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.
I tried installing a dimmer to a 3-way circuit. The dimmer has a hard switch and a dimming slide. After installing and turning the power back on, both the dimmer switch and the other (non-dimming) switch were able to...
Hello! I am trying to install a smart fan/light dimmer combo switch (Treat life). I have installed one of these before in another location of the house with zero issues so I didn't think doing another one in another spot in the house would be an issue for me. I full well know which are my fan...
I’m looking for a dimmer switch that works well with Sylvania’s 61405 LED wafer lights. Only two lights on the switch. I installed the switch in the picture, and it did nothing.
Thanks for your input.

I guess dimmer switches have a minimum load required for operation. I believe this is the problem I have run up against. In replacing the halogen bulbs in my light fixture with all LEDs functionality ceases. The...
