The new Gira E3 switch range merges gently curved contours and soft satin finishes in six pastel shades. This is the mid-grey variety, a medium neutral shade set on a white base. The central dimmer control is available in glossy or matt white.The dimmer units, made by ION in the Netherlands, use the “Trailing Edge” dimming principle and are available in load ratings of 200W or 350W for the single unit, and 2 x 200W for the double (all ratings in LED).

If you require a different dimmer version, such as a 1-10V controller or “satellite” dimmers, please get in touch.

What you need to know

(Click image to enlarge. Pictures for illustration only. Number of gangs and/or finishes might vary)

What does an electrician call this?

This is a 1-gang 2-way dimmer (Leading Edge or Trailing Edge)

Where is this used in the home?

A 1-gang 2-way dimmer is commonly used for controlling a single light source from one or two places.

Installation

Because of the modular nature of European wiring accessories, installation is slightly different to fitting the encapsulated (moulded) switches and sockets common in the UK. Have a look at the step-by-step pictures below, or consult the more detailed Gira rocker switch installation instructions.

NB: We used a European round box in the step-by-step pictures, but the procedure is the same for square UK boxes.
