HQ5W - 1 Gang 1 Way 1x 250W per gang Standard Dimmer Switch Standard White Finish

This dimmer switch is designed to meet the latest European Safety Legislation.

The lights can be dimmed by the rotary control piece. Please note that this switch is only suitable for 1 way circuits.

In choosing a standard dimmer you must add the wattages of the bulbs you wish to dim and choose a dimmer with a suitable maximum load rating. If you have a 2 way circuit (where the same lights are controlled by two switches) you must choose a push on/push off dimmer and replace one of the switches with that dimmer.

When you switch on a push on/push off dimmer please note that the lights will return to the same level that they were when you last switched them off.

The standard dimmer can be used for mains incandescent GLS lamps (standard mains light bulbs), maximum load as specified on dimmer. It can also dim GU10 or similar Hi Spot Mains Halogen lamps (only use quality UK supplied lamps) maximum load as specified on dimmer. By using standard dimmers there is a zero risk of damage in case of lamp failure and a dramatically improved lamp life.

If you are using the dimmer with quality low voltage transformers such as Varilight low voltage transformers (product codes: YT70, YT105, YT150, YT250) or other electronic low voltage transformers, you can control them up to maximum load as specified on the dimmer.

Please note standard dimmers do not dim wire-wound transformers, choose the Intelligent Dimmer (IQ Dimmer).

The standard dimmers also do not dim fans and inductive loads, choose the Intelligent Dimmer (IQ Dimmer) or look at Fan Regulators for these awkward loads, [please check with manufacturer that appliance is dimmable].
