Hi,
I’m replacing a single light switch with a dimmer.
However the wiring is different. In my new dimmer I have no COMS (see pic). Where do I put the COMS wore?

I have a live symbol on the new dimmer - what wire should I put in there from my old switch? COMS or L1.

First image new dimmer them original switch

Thanks guys

Common (the two brown wires) go into the middle hole of the new switch (the symbol.)

The single brown wire would then go into L1 of the new switch.

Don't forget to earth the new switch .
