    Light switch with overrun timer...

    I went to swap a fan for a customer, they wanted a humidistat one. When I dropped the old fan I found it was wired with T&E. I explained there was no permanent live so no overrun was possible, and that I'd either have to make a lot of mess running a three-core or they'd be best off leaving the...

    Unknown switch

    Does anyone know this switch? It was used in the 1960s by my father to distribute power to either one or two lamps. In one position, one lamp would burn at full intensity, in the other two at half intensity. I am interested in the name of the switch and what it was originally used for.

    The following dead-end 3-way wiring diagram shows my current setup with the Zooz Zen21, but it's not working. This wiring works fine with a simple standard paddle 3-way switch that doesn't require a neutral wire. However, since the Zooz switch requires a neutral wire, I ran a white wire from the...
