The brushed chrome faceplate has a rounded edge profile and a central rotary control knob that adjusts brightness, switches between trailing-edge and leading-edge dimming modes, and resets the dimmer from the front plate without removing it from the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for residential installations where dimming control is required over a single lighting circuit from two switch positions, the dimmer supports both modern LED retrofit lamps and traditional halogen or incandescent bulbs. It ships pre-set to trailing-edge mode, which suits most dimmable LED bulbs and reduces the buzzing or flickering that can occur with leading-edge dimmers on electronic loads. The mode can be switched to leading-edge if the installation uses older magnetic-transformer halogen downlights or non-dimmable CFLs that require a different waveform.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt-in overload and overheat protection automatically reduces output or shuts down the dimmer if the load exceeds its rating or if internal temperature rises beyond safe limits. An inrush current limiter protects the dimmer from the high initial current draw when incandescent or halogen lamps are first switched on. The steel faceplate measures 85.75mm square with a 7.5mm projection from the wall once fitted to a 25mm minimum back box. The brushed chrome finish is directionally brushed in vertical lines, giving a muted metallic appearance that reduces fingerprints compared to polished chrome.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dimmer should not be used in mixed-load installations where different lamp brands, types or wattages share the same circuit, as the varying electrical characteristics can cause unstable dimming performance or reduce lamp lifespan. The IP20 rating limits the dimmer to dry indoor locations — it is not suitable for bathrooms, outdoor use, or areas exposed to moisture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e85.75 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e85.75 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProjection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMin.
