Hi,

I am currently renovating my bathroom and have one of these Dimpull switches. I have attempted to wire it up and just wanted to check with some more knowledgeable people that what I have done is correct...

So, to the dimpull I have the circuit feed (L & N) and out the other side, I have the switched live and N going to a junction box where various spurs head out to the lights. One of the spurs goes to another junction box that has the 3C & E cable from the fan going to it. I have connected the N from the dimpull (via the previous junction box) to the N of the fan and the switched L of the dimpull (via the previous junction box) to the switched live of the fan. To connect the L of the fan, I have taken a single core & E cable feed from the circuit before it enters the dimpull.

This appears to have the desired effect, but I just wanted to make sure that I hadn't overcomplicated things or missed something!

Cheers

Tim

PS. On a side note, I am using LV dimmable spots. In the blurb it says that when used with LV, the max wattage is 175. Does this therefore mean I can only have 3 spots running off that switch?

Depends on which lamps you use. You could stick to 35w or even 20w (not very bright). But you'd need to be sure no-one mistakenly replaces the lamps with larger wattages in the future.
