Multiple dimmer installation load ratings
To avoid overheating when using more than one dimmer in the same Grid Plus Enclosure it is recommended that the dimmers are preferentially mounted on the bottom row on 6, 8, 9, 12, 18 and 24 gang enclosures, before mounting on any other row(s). Also, each dimmer MUST be de-rated and its load adjusted in accordance with the information provided in Table 3.
The maximum Power/Load figures given in table 3 should not be exceeded, taking due care with different figures for normal GLS tungsten filament lamps compared with Mains Tungsten Halogen Lamps and Low Voltage Transformers. Use of the latter is not reccommended.

Installation
General
Cut cables to length and make earth connect­ions to grid. Earth: bond Grid Frame to metal mounting box. Grid frames are screwed to back box, modules wired as appropriate and simply clipped into grid frame by hand. No tools are necessary. The front plate is screw fixed to the grid frame to finish the assembly.
To remove or change modules, simply remove front plate. Individual modules fit perfectly into the frontplate in flush fitting installations.
Grid mounting
An integral design feature automatically ensures that the modules fit perfectly into the frontplate in flush fitting installations.
Some manual adjustment may be required for surface mounted applications
1 Loacate bottom tab of module in base
of grid.
2 Module pushes into place at top with
a ‘click.
3To remove module, press tab at top and
lever forward.
