Notes:

  1. A light that does not flicker does not automatically confirm compatibility – unusual electronic harmonics may occur that can cause early failure of equipment.
  2. Always read the instructions provided with the dimmer. Dimmer wattages must often be de-rated in various configurations.
  3. Lights may not be covered under warranty if connected to an incompatible dimmer.

In some low load situations (single downlight on a circuit) it may be necessary to use a load correction device such as Clipsal’s 31LCDA or 31CAP.

Circuits using incompatible devices can cause unusual electrical signals which can result in a range of issues including:

  • Flickering of lights
  • Inconsistent dimming
  • Audible hum
  • Electromagnetic interference (EMI)
  • Early failure of equipment
