Hello All

I've had a 4-gang dimmer (varilight) installed. One of the modules is meant to control a set of pir security light (up/down type). I didn't realise that a pir would require a straight mains connection. So now the pir works fine until the dimmer cuts the signal. Is there a way around this using the current setup or would I need to get another connection for the pir lights? thanks

Who installed it?

Get him back to correct his faulty work.
 
Do you need to dim the light, remove the dimmer concerned and fit a switch module to match the other 3 dimmers

Thanks All. I've decided to change the lights to a dimmable, non-pir which should address the issues
