Hi guys,
Does anybody know of a dimmer/grid dimmer that can be used with the new LED GU10 style lamps (The good ones that look like the halers fittings). Have a customer that wants them dimmed but the minimum load is 40W and they're not working. The lamps are dimmable by the way!
Cheers.
Back when I was in training I always remember the boss had a problem with a buzzing dimmer on downlighters.
Solved it by changing the voltage of the dimmer....
Can someone tell me why the dimmer buzzed, didn't take enough interest at the time but would like to know why???
Friend of mine whats me to look at the kitchen lights.
They said that two bulbs blew which took out the mcb. They replaced the lamps and the lights work but dimmers do not.
Would the dimmers of blown?
Hi, my client needs a 3 gang dimmer but the rotary on/off variety not the push on/off.

Cheers

I have been asked to install some lutron dimmers. Do the switches need a neutral? The customer has handed them to me without any instructions. Currently there are standard dimmers in place, no neutral.
