A dimmer switch works by adjusting the voltage and current flowing to a light fixture, changing the brightness level. It uses electronic components like triacs or MOSFETs to control power delivery efficiently. The included diagram typically illustrates key parts: the input power, dimmer mechanism, load (light), and wiring configuration showing how the switch modulates light […]
A dimmer switch primarily reduces voltage to control the brightness of lighting, which indirectly affects amperage by lowering current flow. It adjusts the power supplied to the bulb, dimming the light without simply cutting off current or changing amperage directly. What Is the Basic Function of a Dimmer Switch? A dimmer switch controls light intensity […]
