Hi all, I have the standard Jeanneau fitted double light switches in my saloon cabin ceiling. I want to replace one or both swicthes with a dimmer - does anyone know the make of the current switch or or repalcement dimmer? Thanks, Ian

Not sure but many Jeanneau electric fittings are made by Berker www.berker.com/ |

I am not a boat expert but recently completed changing most of my home lights to LED. Not all LEDs are dimmable so I suggest checking first on your lights and fixtures to see if they are dimmable before buying dimmers. I learned the hard way.

I have bought a dimmer unit with cover and switch. I have tested that it worls with LEDs.
BTW Berker and Inprojal insert series are interchangeable. This unit was also advertised to be compatabilty and it is size-wise. Just need to decide how to wire and instal now. More later.

finally got around to installing the dimmer..pleased to say it is all working.
I had to trim the mount a little. The wiring took a little working out..both the -12V wires have to go back to a -tive. I used the -tive terminal on the other led lamp in the same panel. All the LED lamps go back to a single fuse on the main board. |
