• Dimming of Constant Current LED's when used in conjuntion with the EL-produkter as Dimmable LED Driver

• Dimmable Ballasts requiring a 1 - 10V control input

Please Note This Dimmer Swich CANNOT be used for:

• Mains Voltage GLS or Halogen lamps

• Electronic & Wire Wound low Voltage lighting transformers

• Fans

• Any electronic control gear that does not require a 1 - 10V control input.

INSTALLATION

READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. IF IN ANY DOUBT, CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN

1. Install the mounting box in the required position.

2. A 3-core cable is required between the switch and the control gear (LED Driver or Ballast). Connect

two wires from the 1-10V Dimmer terminal of the control gear to the + and - teminals of the dimmer

switch. Connect a live feed to the common of the dimmer switch and connect from L1 to the Live

input of the control gear. See diagram overleaf.

3. To connect the dimmer switch for 1 or 2-way switching, please refer to the diagram overleaf.

4. When stripping the cables for wiring ensure that no bare conductors can project from the terminals.

5. Dimmer switches with a metal front plate MUST be earthed using the Earth terminal or Earth fly lead

on the front plate.

6. After connecting the wiring push the dimmer switch back towards the wall box ensuring the that the

wiring is not trapped between the back of the dimmer module and the mounting box or the front

plate and the mounting box, tighten the plate fixing screws provided. Do not over-tighten the fixing

screws or you may distort or break the front plate.

7. When installation is complete switch on the mains supply and push the dimmer knob to operate.

Adjust the rotary knob until the desired light level is reached.

Please note - DO NOT perform insulation resistance tests on a lighting circuit with a dimmer switch

connected. An insulation resistance test may damage the electronic components in the dimmer

beyond repair.

A slight buzzing noise may be heard from the dimmer switch in operation, this is perfectly normal.

WIRING CIRCUITS

EL-produkter as rotary dimmer switches are suitable for 1 or 2-way lighting circuits.

The dimmer has a push-on, push-off switch action and a rotary action to dim the light.

Each 1 - 10V dimmer module has 5 screw terminals, L1, L2, C (common) and the 1 - 10 V connections marked + and -

1-Way Switching

In 1-way lighting circuits each light is controlled by 1 switch.

Connect the two wires either way round, to the C terminal and either L1 or L2. One of the L terminals is not used in 1-way switching.

2-Way Switching

2-Way lighting circuits have two switches controlling the same lights from two different locations.

This arrangement is commonly used at the top and bottom of staircases or at the entry and exit doors to a room.

One standard plate switch is used with the dimmer switch for 2-way switching applications. See below for a typical 2-way circuit.
