Looking to install a dimmer switch in your home? Leviton 3-way dimmer switches are a popular choice for controlling the lighting in your space. They offer flexibility and convenience, allowing you to adjust the brightness to your liking.
Before you get started with the installation, it’s important to have a clear understanding of the wiring diagram. Proper wiring is crucial to ensure the switch functions correctly and safely.
To begin, turn off the power to the circuit at the breaker box. Remove the existing switch cover and switch from the wall. Take note of the existing wiring configuration before disconnecting any wires.
Next, follow the wiring diagram provided by Leviton for your specific switch model. Connect the common wire to the black screw terminal on the dimmer switch, and the traveler wires to the brass screw terminals. The ground wire should be connected to the green screw terminal.
Once you’ve connected the wires, carefully tuck them back into the electrical box and secure the dimmer switch in place. Attach the switch cover and restore power to the circuit. Test the dimmer switch to ensure it’s functioning properly.
With the Leviton 3-way dimmer switch properly installed and wired, you can now enjoy the convenience of adjusting the lighting in your space to create the perfect ambiance for any occasion.
