Dimmer Switch

A dimmer switch varies the brightness of connected lighting instead of simple on/off control. It is specified by load type compatibility, wattage range, gang count and market faceplate format.

FAQ

Do dimmers work with all LED bulbs?

No. LEDs must be marked dimmable and matched to a compatible leading- or trailing-edge dimmer; incompatible pairings can flicker or fail.

What load range does a dimmer need?

Match the dimmer's rated minimum and maximum wattage to the total connected load; confirm the exact range for the specific model.
