Are you scared and lost when it comes to electrical language? Don’t panic! In fact, some terms can be complicated to understand and use. That’s why we’ve decided to give you a fuller explanation of the benefits of dimmable luminaires.
More often used, the term ‘dimmable’ means ‘variable’. A dimmable luminaire gives you the option of adjusting the light intensity to suit your current needs and desires. For a dimmable lamp to work, there are two major conditions.
-Firstly, you absolutely must have a compatible bulb. If your bulb is incompatible, there will be no dimming.
-Secondly, your luminaire must be fitted with a dimmer.
Below is a video explaining how a dimmable light works.
There are two versions of light fixtures with a dimmable system:
-First, step-dimming systems. In this setup, the light fixture has different preset light levels you can choose based on your needs. For example, some dimmable lamps have a button that lets you change light intensity in stages.
-Second, there are dimmable fixtures with progressive lumen variation. Ranging from 0% to 100%, the lumens adapt according to your mood and the room to be illuminated. When set at 0%, the fixture is off, and when set at 100%, it’s at full power. Floor lamps with a “rotary” switch are a good example of this.
