Is it possible? Dimmer & fan

whjohnson
Client has requested bathroom lighting to be dimmable.

This poses a problem which I wonder if you might be able to assist with.

Am thinking about possible conflict between fan timer electronics and dimmer switch electronics?

If this is indeed a problem, is there a way of solving it by utilizing a different wiring method?'

There will be 2 switches employed, one to switch 3 x downlights and the other to switch a led strip on one wall and a pendent light over a vanity unit.

I propose that the 3 x downlights be connected with the fan and the other circuit be switched separately.

    The obvious answer is a separate switch for the fan.

    That's what I've got, 1 switch for the wall light, 1 for the ceiling, and 1 for the fan.

    There is also a switch for the landing light on the same 1G plate - the beauty of the Click Mode switches.

    Of course, you wont fit a dimmer in that switch, and will have to go up to 2G.
