Multigang and Mixed-Bulb-Type Ratings
When installing more than one Dimmer in the same wallbox, it may be necessary to remove some side sections
prior to wiring (see diagram). Removal of Dimmer side sections may reduce maximum wattage, as shown in the
chart below.
Mixing bulb types (using a combination of CFL/LED, and Incandescent/Halogen bulbs) will also affect the
maximum ratings, as shown in the chart below.
Each Dimmer has inside
sections removed
Middle Dimmer has two side
sections removed
Do not remove outside
sections
Total CFL/LED
Wattage Installed
(Wattage per bulb x # of bulbs)
Maximum Allowable Incandescent/Halogen Wattage

0 W + 600 W 500 W 400 W
1 W – 25 W + 500 W 400 W 300 W
26 W – 50 W + 400 W 300 W 200 W
51 W – 75 W + 300 W 200 W 100 W
76 W – 100 W + 200 W 100 W 50 W
101 W – 125 W + 100 W 50 W 0 W
126 W – 150 W + 0 W 0 W 0 W
*EXAMPLE: If one set of side sections is removed and you have two 24 W CFL bulbs installed
(Total CFL Wattage = 48 W), you may add up to 300W of incandescent or halogen
lighting.
