Frequently Asked Questions

LED dimmers are designed to work with dimmable LED, dimmable CFL, incandescent and halogen bulbs. Some models will also work with Magnetic Low Voltage (MLV) and Electronic Low Voltage (ELV) loads. Leviton recommends only LED bulbs that are labeled DIMMABLE be used. The packaging on the bulb should identify it as dimmable.
Electronic Low Voltage (ELV) dimmers incorporate reverse-phase dimming control, which tends to provide enhanced performance with dimmable LED bulbs. Before using an ELV dimmer with LED/CFL bulbs, ensure the dimmer indicates that it is listed for use with these bulb types. ELV dimmers require connection to a neutral wire, which is often not available in older construction. In addition, Electronic Low Voltage dimmers are typically a more expensive solution.
No, Leviton’s LED dimmers are two wire devices that can replace any standard wall switch, which make them ideal in older homes that may not have a neutral wire in the wallbox.
The neutral wire is generally white and serves as a “path home” for the additional electricity used to power the dimmer. Some dimmers with higher ratings, or advanced technology, require a neutral wire for operation. Be sure to refer to the dimmer specifications on the packaging to find out if a neutral wire is required.
Single pole means controlling light(s) from one location. 3-way is the ability to control light(s) from two separate locations. Multi-Location or Multi-Way is the ability to control light(s) from 3 or more locations.
We strongly recommend you use the same light source to achieve consistent performance from bulb to bulb. If you choose to mix bulb types on the same dimmer, it is possible that you will experience a variation in dimming performance and start up characteristics.
