Replacing Dimmers with Non-Dimming Switches

If you would like to install your Brilliant in a multi-way configuration, but you currently have a dimmer as the other switch, you can easily replace the dimmer with a non-dimming switch.

You can find a three-way switch at your local hardware store or on Amazon.  Make sure you purchase an appropriate switch for your multi-way set-up (three-way or four-way).  A three-way switch will typically have four screws where you can attach wires, one of which is the ground screw.  A four-way switch will have 5 screws where you can attach wires, one of which is the ground screw.

When you are replacing your dimmer, we recommend labelling your wires before installing your new on/off switch.  You can refer to our article here on some common switches and dimmers and how they are wired.
