alex6192 Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Hi guys,I am trying to replace two light switches for dimmers.Both switches are two way.One of the switches has three wires and the other has two.Each of the wires have three inner wires (excluding the bare earth) and they are coloured black, grey and brown. One of the main wires (the 3 wire box) has 'switched feed' written on it. All the other wires are unmarked.The dimmer switch I have bought (which i intend to fit onto the box which has three wires coming from it) has two L1 terimnals, two L2 terminals and two which have a symbol that looks like a wavy line with an arrow going through it.So, in summary I have the following.Box 1 (excluding earth).3 black wires3 grey wire3 brown wiresBox 2 (excluding earth):2 black wire2 grey wires2 brown wiresSwitch 1 (for box 1)2 L1 terminals2 L2 terminals2 wavy line terminalsSwitch 2 (for box 2)2 L1 terminals2 L2 terminals2 COM terminalsCan anyone tell me how to wire these switches?Many thanks,Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
