how do I install a lamp dimmer switch?
inline dimmer switch
The same way you would install an inline toggle switch on a lamp cord. The lamp cord just runs through it with the connections on the inside. It will come with instructions, or follow these.
1) After making sure your lamp is unplugged, use a utility knife to separate the two wires in your lamp’s cord.
2) Look at the wires to determine which one is neutral and which one is hot—the hot wire has smooth insulation, and the neutral wire will be ribbed. Slice through the hot wire where you wish to install your dimmer.
3) Use wire strippers to strip about one inch of insulation from both ends of the cut hot wire.
4) Unscrew and remove the cover of the dimmer switch. Place the neutral wire along the inside of the switch box, as specified by the manufacturer. Put the cut ends of the hot wire under the two terminal clamps, and fasten them in place by turning the screws.
5) Screw the dimmer switch’s cover back into place. Plug the lamp in, and check to make sure the new switch is functioning.
Be aware that some CFL bulbs will not work correctly with dimmer switches and some require a special dimmer. If you are using incandescent, so problem.
