• Low Voltage Applications: Use with core and coil (magnetic) low voltage transformers only. Do not use any solid-state electronic low voltage transformers. Operation of a low voltage circuit with all lamps inoperative or removed may result in current flow in excess of normal levels. To avoid transformer overheating and premature transformer failure, Crestron recommends the following:
> Do not operate low voltage circuits without operative lamps in place.
> Replace burned-out lamps as quickly as possible.
> Use transformers that incorporate thermal protection or fuse transformer primary windings to prevent transformer failure due to overcurrent.
The following describes the installation of a CLW-DIMEX-P dimmer.
1. Turn power off at the circuit breaker.
