Unexpected colours in (older) light switch Discussion ThreadUnexpected colours in (older) light switch Electrical Advice
Hi,
I'm looking to change this double switch over to a trailing-edge dimmer for compatible LEDs.
We have three bunches of wires.
The colours I've encountered don't seem to conform to the old system, we have two blues and two whites in the mix.
See pic…
So the advice I need is, does it look OK right now?
Should I just replicate like-for-like on the new dimmer (L1, L2, common 'arrow and wavey line symbol')?
The lights have been working fine for years FYI.
Many thanks!
Joe
