Each gang operates independently via a push on\/off rotary control, allowing four separate lighting zones to be controlled from a single faceplate with a brushed chrome finish and 2.5mm low-profile projection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for living rooms, open-plan kitchen-dining areas, and home cinema installations where multiple lighting zones need independent dimming control, the 2-way configuration allows the same lighting circuit to be controlled from two locations. The trailing-edge mode is preset at installation for compatibility with most LED and low-voltage halogen loads, while the leading-edge mode can be selected via the front control knob if fitting older incandescent or high-voltage halogen lamps. Trim adjustment and mode switching are accessible from the front of the plate without removing the faceplate, making it straightforward to recalibrate if lamps are changed in future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe flat plate design uses premium-grade steel with a directional brushed chrome finish that provides a low-sheen metallic surface, softening reflections compared to polished chrome. The 2.5mm projection sits nearly flush with the wall once fitted to a 25mm minimum back box. Each gang includes overload protection, overheat protection, and an inrush current limiter to prevent tripping when switching on high-capacity lighting circuits. The dimmer caps match the brushed chrome faceplate finish, maintaining a consistent metallic appearance across all four controls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis dimmer requires all lamps on each controlled circuit to be of the same brand, type and wattage — mixing different lamp brands or wattages on the same fitting will cause flickering or inconsistent dimming performance. The IP20 rating limits use to dry interior locations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e87.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e147.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProjection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMin.
