Hi
I have an intermediate light switch which I want to use as a simple 1 way light switch. The switch has 4 terminals, labelled 1 to 4.
How would I wire the switch to operate as a 1 way 'normal' switch?
Thanks. |

scroll down to the bottom of the page. |
Thanks. That shows the intermediate switch as 2 x L1 and 2 X L2.
Switch I have is labelled L1 through to L4.
Does it matter which way around the live and switched live goes? |

Follow the pattern rather than the numbers.
As per intermediate switch used as one way. |
