Mark looks at three different types of light dimmers available in Australia and discusses some of the benefits of each for dimming, led lights and fan control
Thanks for the video. I had wondered why the dimmer wasn't just hard wired into the switch to start with but of course with the modular way switches are now. Solved my questions
So one wire from the dimmer goes into number one terminal off the switch. and that cable from number one from your light switch that goes to your light goes with the other dimmer cable.
I have tried 3 different dimmers including the diginet and a push button one. They all suffer from flicker when the offpeak signal comes through. Its so frustrating.
Hey Mark, I have a similar Clipsal dimmer switch with out the switch button but press the dimmer on and off as switch. It has a little illuminated ring around it. How do I stop just the illumination from behind the switch? Cheers mate
How do u adjust the dimmer so it doesn’t Flickr ? I got a deta dimmer it says it’s compatable with led light . My led lights are dimmable I made sure before I bought them. But the dimmer switch makes them flicker is there a way to adjust them ?
No, so the switch wire that goes up to your light should be put in a connector with one leg from the dimmer. The other dimmer leg goes into your switched active on the switch. Does this answer your question?

Ever come across faulty brand new dimmer?. Just bought new trailing edge dimmer. It's open circuit. The Led won't turn on at all when installed.

Hi, on the 4 holes for inserting wires which one takes neutral from wall ??? thanks Mark. I have a hpm dimmer rotary trailing edge unit. thanks
If I have 4 or 5 way switch how we can install rottary dimmer switch please?
Would you like to show your fan switches please?
Hey Mark, is this the same as a variable speed fan controller (32E500F),
Deta didn’t work and Martec didn’t work both flicker should I try with the diginet?
Diginet hands done best one .. I tried 4 and the diginet night flicker once every 4 hours that’s about it best one
How would you do it on a 2 way switch?
How does the dimmer in the Clipsal Iconic go together?
Finish wiring the Thiong!!! Not much help.
may i ask why the dimmer has two wire design?
谭丽燕 1 wire goes into the switched active terminal on a switch, the other goes as your line cable up to the light mate.
One dimmer leg to (1) terminal...
The other dimmer leg with the cable that control the light switch wire goes both together in BP connector..

Might be ballasts.
Does the switch wire go in with the dimmer in l1?
No, so the switch wire that goes up to your light should be put in a connector with one leg from the dimmer. The other dimmer leg goes into your switched active on the switch. Does this answer your question?
Switch wire with one leg of dimmer goes into BP connector, the other dimmer leg goes into terminal 1 in the Switch.
He can’t tell you how to wire it. You cannot give electrical wiring instructions....to the public .....you need a licensed electrician to install this
Your comment is valid for Australia - here in NZ the home handyman can install a dimmer into an existing circuit.
@@richardbaron7106 He is Australian and operates his business in Australia... enough said!
And if they're not competent enough to figure it out from the wiring diagram in the box, they shouldn't be attempting it at all.
It’s not that he can’t tell you how to wire it. It’s completely fine for him to tell you, but legally you can’t necessarily do it without a license.
He just did. Bell end
