Leviton dimmers offer benefits such as energy savings, customization of lighting levels, extended bulb life, and improved ambiance in a home lighting system.
Do dimmers save electricity when used with lighting fixtures?
Yes, dimmers can save electricity when used with lighting fixtures by reducing the amount of power consumed when the lights are dimmed.
What is a dimmer on the lighting console?
The dimmers control the intensity of the lights.
Where can one find more information about Dimmers?
There are a few ways to find out more information about dimmers. You can talk to someone that works in electrical departments at Home Depot, Lowes, or local lighting stores. There is also an online site called How Stuff Works that explains about dimmers.
I have pendant type kitchen lighting. Would a dimmer work well with this type of lighting?
Dimmers are great for all types of lighting. It will work well for pendant type of lighting. Pendant lighting is a current modern trend and very stylish!
What is the working principle of electronic dimmers?
Electric dimmers work basically by controlling the amount of voltage going through. It chops out portions of the current, and the reduced voltage reduces the power of the receiving device, usually a light.
Trailing edge dimmer how does it work?
Trailing edge dimmers (as opposed to leading edge, or triac dimmers) turn off the electrical load at the end, or trailing edge, of the AC input waveform. They control the power to the load by varying the duty cycle (the ratio of on time to on+off time) of the voltage to the load, the same as leading edge or triac dimmers. Cutting off the trailing edge of the waveform allows compatibility with electric loads that are either resistive or capacitive in nature (as opposed to leading edge dimmers which are compatible with resistive and inductive loads). Trailing edge dimmers are more complex than other dimmers, and are usually implemented using back-to-back power FETs (n-channel enhancement-mode MOSFETS with their source terminals connected together, the gates connected together, and the drain terminals acting as the two power terminals). The FETs have an intrinsic body diode which means they always conduct in one direction. Putting two FETs together as described allows current flow to be controlled in either direction (with no gate signal, both FETs are off, and the body diodes allow no current flow either. If one FET is gated on, the current can flow through that FET and the body diode of the other FET). Trailing edge dimmers are designed to fade the voltage to zero rather than switch it abruptly off, by applying a resistance to create a ramp rather than a "cliff." This greatly reduces interfering electrical and radio emissions. It also increases the amount of heat dissipated, since the resistive period generates heat. Most trailing edge dimmers contain thermal monitors that can adjust the ramp if too much heat is being generated.
What does the term 'triac' means?
A "triac" is a type of thyristor designed for electronic control of the current supplied to a circuit, used especially in dimmers for lighting systems.

What does dmx lighting stand for?
DMX stands for Digital Multiplex, which is a communication protocol used to control lighting equipment like dimmers, lights, and special effects. This technology allows for precise control over the brightness, color, and movement of each individual light in a lighting system.
