Initial Question
Hello,
I have a ceiling light fixture that uses a SET210CS transformer. I see that the description says it is dimmable via the primary. I installed a 40-400W, 200-250 VAC dimmer switch, but it did not work well with the transformer. The SET210CS buzzed loudly and flashed the lights at most dimmer positions.
I tried a second dimmer to see if the first was defective. Both had the same results. Both dimmers are now working very well with lights that do not use transformers.
Is there a different type of dimmer that I can buy for this transformer? Or should I look for a different transformer that works with this type of dimmer?
Thanks,
Mark

Hello,
Some of the earlier units are not dimmable.
The units we have are dimmable with a Trailing Edge Dimmer.

Hi Steven,
You were right. I finally got around to purchasing a trailing-edge dimmer and installed it today. Works great! No hum and it dims all the way down to 0% without dropping off a cliff.
Thanks for your help.
