Unlikely you'll need it but:

1 Gang 2 Way 1000w Dimmer Switch

Thanks Jason i didnt think i would need 100w per fitting but you never know what they might put in there in the future. cheers

Sounds ok but just confirm they are your standard gls lamps and nothing fancy as some dimmers require a reduction of up to 50% on the load they can handle with certain lamps, i,ve found this with gu10 lamps especially, but if you get the right dimmer they dont need allowances, its an issue with older dimmers and often overlooked by alot of people thus dimmers burn out prematurely.
