Dimmer stat is an auto transformer which is generally connected to supply which provide us step up /step down output depending on the terminal to which input is connected.
Normally there are two ways to operate a Dimmer stat:-
1.the output voltage can be varied from 0 to full supply voltage.
2. voltage from 0 to 12 % higher than supply voltage
This can be easily understood by connection diagram of a Dimmer stat-

What is the meaning of dimmer stat?
Dimmerstat is the device with ac input an ac output. it consist of a variable transformer inside it so as to vary the output.
What is a dimmer stat what is its main use and function?
The basic dimmerstat is meant for operation from a nominal input voltage of 240v 1ph ac & can give output voltage anywhere between 0 to 240v or 0 to 270v ac by simple transformer action. Three such dimmerstats connected electrically in star and mechanically in tandem, become suitable for operation from a nominal input voltage of 415v 3ph ac and can give output anywhere between 0 to 415v or 0 to 470v.
