    What are ELV Dimmers and How do they Work?

    What are ELV Dimmers ELV dimmers are electronic low-voltage dimmers that are designed to work with light fixtures that use electronic transformers. These dimmers work differently than traditional or multi-location dimmers, which use rheostats to adjust the voltage level. ELV dimmers use pulse-width modulation (PWM) to control the power delivered to the light fixture, resulting…
