I have a dimmer switch in dining room it lights 4 double bulbed wall lights. When i touch around the switch on the square flat plastic surround piece it feels very warm to hot - is this normal ? Thanks :roll:
 
some dimmers do get warm, but not hot.

solutions:

check wattage of all lamps

see wattage of dimmer

you may need a "bigger" dimmer

this also assumes the wall lights are "ordainairy" (ok funny shapes also included) but not 12v halogens
