Q & A
Q. Why is this 300W narrow dimmer derated to 200W?
A. Dimmers must have their heat-dissipating fins trimmed off to fit next to each other or GFCI's (or other wide devices) in a wall box. With the fins gone, the dimmer can only control up to 200W: this is called derating. If you are not installing this dimmer next to another one, choose the regular (wide) 300 Watt 3-Way Push Button Dimming Control Switch.
