An effective way to quickly change the mood of a room is by dimming or brightening the lights with a dimmer switch. A softer light results in a more comforting, relaxing atmosphere. Brighter lighting is more suitable for normal room use and reading. An easy way to control your lighting is to install a dimmer switch. Dimmer switches come in four popular styles: dial ; slide ; touch pad and combination light switch/dimmer slide. Light dimmer switches come in different shapes and each operates a little differently. Residential Landscape Lighting and Design offers wide selection Lutron dimmers in numerous styles such as Ariadni, Diva, Faedra, Grafik Eye, Maestro, RadioRA, Skylark, and Spacer. Want to learn more about installing dimmer controls? For your convenience, each of the above products has detailed wiring diagram links to make installation easy.

History One of the earliest recorded dimmers is Granville Woods 's "Safety Dimmer", published in 1890 ; dimmers before that were liable to cause fires. Early dimmers were directly controlled through the manual manipulation of large dimmer panels, but this meant that all power had to come through the lighting control location, which could be inconvenient and potentially dangerous, especially with systems that had a large number of channels, high power lights or both (such as a stage disco or other similar venues). When thyristor dimmers came into use, analog remote control systems (often 0-10V lighting control systems) became feasible. The wire for the control systems was much smaller (with low current and lower danger) than the heavy power cables of previous lighting systems. Each dimmer had its own control wires which meant a huge number of wires leaving the lighting control location and running to each individual dimmer. Modern systems use a digital control protocol such as DMX512, ETCnet, or ETCnet2 to control a large number of dimmers (and other stage equipment) through a single cable. In 1961 Joel Spira, founder of Lutron Electronics, invented the first solid state dimmer, which switches the current on and off 120 times per second, saving energy and allowing the dimmer to be installed in a standard electrical wallbox. Types of dimmer Early examples of a dimmer include a salt water dimmer. In a salt water dimmer, there were two metal contacts in a glass beaker. One contact was on the bottom, while the other was able to move up and down.

Non domestic dimmers are usually controlled remotely by means of various protocols. Analogue dimmers usually require a separate wire for each channel of dimming carrying a voltage between 0 and 10 V. Some analogue circuitry then derives a control signal from this and the mains supply for the switches. As more channels are added to the system more wires are needed between the lighting controller and the dimmers. In the late 70s serial analogue protocols were developed. These multiplexed a series of analogue levels onto a single wire, with embedded clocking signal similar to a composite video signal (in the case of Strand Lighting's European D54 standard, handling 384 dimmers) or separate clocking signal (in the case of the US standard AMX192 ). Digital protocols, such as DMX512 have proved to be the answer since the late 80s. In early implementations a digital signal was sent from the controller to a demultiplexer, which sat next to the dimmers. This converted the digital signal into a collection of 0 to +10 V or 0 to -10 V signals which could be connected to the individual analogue control circuits. Modern dimmer designs use microprocessors to convert the digital signal directly into a control signal for the switches.
