Confirming light switch wiring

[Chris_Von_Bron]

Hi all,
I am upgrading a Tenby lightswitch to a Marbo dimmer single 2way 400W and would like confirmation of how to wire up the new dimmer. The light is 3x60W (dimmable) so the 400W is certainly within spec.

Please can you confirm what goes where?

common goes in the right hand terminal, and 1 goes in L1

I will have the deepen the recess so that the deeper dimmer will fit, but I have test wired the dimmer and it works perfectly. Many thanks for the guidance!

OK in this instance he resurrected a 5 and a half year old thread for no apparent reason, but that post was deleted. It could have been reported without doing exactly the same thing (posting after it), and the thread could have returned to history.
