Hello all,
I have an old industrial unit with a good (and well put in) fused switch, that used to control a ceiling fan..... but I have removed the ceiling fan, and attached lighting to it instead.... so the switch is a nice industrial type switch which simply controls the power to the lighting circuit.
What I would like to do is add a dimmer switch, and the way I am envisaging doing it is to put a break in the line between the existing switch and the lights..... probably only about 10 cm away from the switch.
My question..... if I buy a simple dimmer switch from screwfix or similar, how do I best wire it up?
Thanks for any guidance you can give guys.
