Dimmer Frequently Asked Questions

First determine what type of bulb you are controlling. There are dimmers designed to work with specific types of bulbs and fixtures in order to get the best dimming results. Next understand your wiring. If you are replacing an existing light switch, do you have neutral wiring or not? Generally older homes do not have a neutral wire in the wallbox. Are you controlling the dimmer from one location or multiple locations? Finally, think about the style of dimmer you want. Leviton has modern as well as more traditional styles to choose from. Download our dimmer buying guide for more assistance.

Electronic Low Voltage (ELV) dimmers incorporate reverse-phase dimming control, which tends to provide enhanced performance with dimmable LED bulbs. Before using an ELV dimmer with LED/CFL bulbs, ensure the dimmer indicates that it is listed for use with these bulb types. ELV dimmers require connection to a neutral wire, which is often not available in older construction. In addition, Electronic Low Voltage dimmers are typically a more expensive solution.

Derating may be required if you have two or more dimmers sharing a wallbox to help dissipate the internal heat of the dimmer. Some dimmers will have fins (heat sink) on the side which will need to be removed. This decreases the wattage capacity that the dimmer can control. Be sure to refer to the dimmer instruction sheet for fin removal. Derating is NOT required when using dimmable LED or dimmable CFL bulbs. Refer to the derating chart in the instructions for maximum load per dimmer.
