Dimmers and Fan Speed Controls are a welcome addition to today’s energy-conscious priorities.
Choose from a wide array of dimmers – digital, preset, slide, rotary, toggle and touch. All offer good looks with great value added features.
For example, dimming the lights effectively allows property owners to be more cost and energy efficient. Fan speed controls come
in a variety of styles and choices to fit almost every functional requirement. Advanced technology ensures precise, quiet operation with a
sleek, sophisticated design.
Toggle Switches come in 15 and 20 amp versions and are offered in single pole, three way, & four way styles to accommodate any switching configuration.
Illuminated Toggle Switches allow the switch to be easily identified in dark rooms. These switches are manufactured from high strength nylon and have an
innovative, quiet flip switching mechanism designed to aid in turning lights and appliances on or off. Toggle Switches are offered in a
variety of colors to match any room interior. |

Replacement of a Switch or Dimmer -
To replace a switch, receptacle or dimmer (referred to as devices) to an existing outlet
box, we recommend that you make the purchases first, and have them ready for installation when you're ready to remove the old ones. |
STEP 1. Be sure the power is turned off to that circuit (or shut all power off).
STEP 2. To begin removing the existing device(s), remove the wall plate and test for voltage first (use a voltage tester). Then
remove the two mounting screws and pull the existing device forward as far as the wires will reach.
STEP 3. Take notice of all the wiring connections to the existing device (2-6 wires may be connected to it). Also take notice of
the colored wires and the colored screws (on the old device) to know the way to connect the new device. Cut the wires off close
to the device (or simply loosen the screws and remove the wires) and discard the old device (other wires in the outlet box do not
matter and should be left alone).
NOTE - If the existing wires have insulation cover that is crumbling apart an electrician should be brought in to complete this job!
STEP 4. Make the wiring connections to the new device. Strip the wire insulation back 1/2" to 3/4". Wire always wraps around a
screw clockwise. Dimmer wires should be connected with spring insert type wire nuts. Make sure all connections are tight! (More
trouble calls are due to loose connections than any other source). |
Dimmers bring a touch of class and elegance to any finished space. These dimmers have slide mechanisms that allow the brightness of
interior lights to be adjusted for any mood. Various styles, switching designs, and illuminated faces combine with a 700 watt
maximum rating so they are perfect for almost any lighting configuration. These dimmers come with or without a preset
switch and LED indicator light for three way switching applications. Decorative slide dimmers are manufactured from high strength nylon
and Decorative versions have an easy to flip rocker paddle designed to aid in turning on lights.

HELP TIPS
- 3-way switch - odd color screw wire (from old device) to odd color screw (on new device) the other two wires do not matter.
- - standard dimmer - wire colors do not matter (unless it's a 3-way dimmer).
- - standard switch - wire colors do not matter.
- - standard receptacle - light colored screws et the white wire(s), dark colored screws get the black wire(s).
- G.F.I. Receptacle - same as a standard receptacle but watch out for the "load" connection (input power does not get connected
to the load or output side of a G.F.I. receptacle).
STEP 5. Grounding a device properly is your responsibility. Metal boxes should be grounded and devices should be grounded (your
voltage tester will be used to test the ground when the power is turned back on).
STEP 6. Folding the wires back into the wall outlet box should be done with care. Some wall outlet boxes may lack space due to
other wires and other wire nuts. Also take notice that the ground wire does not come close to any screws on a switch or receptacle
(instant short circuit). Make sure that the device can freely touch the wall surface (top & bottom) without crushing the
wires inside.
STEP 7. Install the two screws and turn the power on. Test the device for grounding with your voltage tester (the voltage should be
the same from "hot to ground) as the voltage inside any other common outlet. Install the wall cover plate.
