I’m after a 4 gang, 2 way dimmer switch for the kitchen. Assumed I could buy any 4 gang, 2 way trailing edge dimmer switch off the shelf, but been told by an electrician (old guy who lives local) that I need the system with the individual modules and to make up the switch from components?
I’m not an electrician, but I am questioning his ‘advice’.
Surely I can just buy a trailing edge 4 gang dimmer? Max number of lights on one of the dimmers would be 12 x 7w gu10 fire rated LED’s. The other 3 would each control 8 x 7w, 4 x 7w and last 3 x 7w. They’d never all be on at the same time.
Hope that makes sense guys
