Hi -
I've got 3 lighting circuits in my living room, each with three down lighters on it. I assume this was originally done to control the lighting level, but I'd prefer to have all 9 lights on a single dimmer switch. My question is: is it as simple as taking the wire that goes into each switch and combining them into a the new dimmer, which would still leave me with 3 circuits, but they would all be controlled together. OR, should I link the circuits so that it is a single circuit of 9 lamps, all coming back to one switch? I'd prefer to do the former as I could do it myself and it would be less destructive, but more important to do it right!
Thanks!
