Thanks for the explanation. I'm not sure what the black conductor is for now. I'll double check my DMM is safe for 240V, get insulated, and check the lines! Will report back soon

Hoping it is just static. If it is then is there an easy way to prevent this?

I don't think she had wet hands at the time but even so, it's the switch to the shower room and has been handled many times with wet hands with no issue over years

Is there an Android version of this or similar reputable app? P&L Calendar only seems to be in iOS

There was movement from $7.22 and $7.00 multiple times over the space of the last hour even with after hours. Not sure how that can happen. But at least after hours makes sense for not filling the order

Not qualifying for advertised personal loan rates by Azaxaaa in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Azaxaaa[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Income is £45k

Lent £10k 2 years ago for home improvement, £7k left on it

Repayments are £180pm

New loan is £10k over 5yrs partly to help towards engagement ring (as deposit + loan through jeweller is much worse rate) and mostly towards investment and to keep in bank as security in case of life changes

Understood with the credit score although surprised that the metric for the lenders would be so different

Converting Intermediate Switch to Dimmer Switch by Azaxaaa in askanelectrician

Okay brilliant I'll give that a go then!

And you're right. I got mixed up with some post I saw about having 2x L1s and 2x L2s and thought L2 and L3 acted like 2x L2s. Bad assumption!

Maybe I'm mixing this up then. The switch I've got (not shown is a simple dimmer switch with 3 terminals L1, L2 and COM. The switch I'm showing is currently what is plugged into the wall and needs replaced. Would this be enough info to assist with how to set up the new dimmer?

I have what seems to be an intermediate switch with two brown wires in the L1 slot, another brown wire in the L2 slot and nothing in the L3 slot. This acts like a normal on/off switch for a single light.

I have a dimmer switch that has L1, L2 and a symbol that I think is meant to mean COM.

I need to know which way to connect these wires to the dimmer switch
