Hi
I am changing an old gold dimmer switch for a more modern brushed steel dimmer switch but am confused with the wiring i've found. Both dimmers are push on/off and twist to dim. There is only 1 single dimmer switch controlling the light. Can you help?
I found the following (pics attached): -
red connected to L1
black connected to C
yellow / green (earth?) connected to L2
As this is a replacement only the instructions tell me to wire the same way as found except earth as per instructions. The earth connection to L2 is confusing me
Can anyone advise?
thanks
