Hi all,
I'm a newbie here and have a question that has probably been answered many times but you know how it is with electrics, so I just want to be sure.
I replaced a dimmer switch in my kitchen last night as the plate around it was getting very hot. I have bought a dimmer switch with a push on/off function. I have connected the earth from the mains wire to the switch's earth terminal and then from there to the back box. I have then connected the Red (L) wire to the L1 terminal and the Black (N) wire to the (~) terminal.
Please can someone confirm that this is the correct method, the new switch seems to be working but it does buzz just a little .
Thanks in advance
Richard
