Connect the Transformer to the Dimmer Switch

In this video I connect the transformer to the on/off dimmer switch.

Key Points

• Plug the power lead into the transformer
• Connect the male transformer socket to the female dimmer switch socket.
• Add connector clip to the dimmer switch.
  NB: the dimmer switch has a positive and negative wire. The negative wire is the one with a single white stripe along the wire.
• Insert the wires into their corresponding port on the connector clip. Push the wire firmly into place.
• Use pliers to close the connector clip latch. Do not force the latch closed as this will break the clip. Apply gentle pressure and then release. Repeat this several times closing the latch more with each attempt. The latch will often make a click sound when closed.
• Take hold of the connector clip in one hand and the protruding wires in the other. Give them a wriggle to test and make sure the latch remains closed.
