Important application notes:
· Receptacles and plugs for dimming use are UL listed for use with all Lutron wallbox dimmers included in this catalog
· If there is only one electrical feed to the receptacle, then the duplex DFDU must be used
·If the hot and dimmed hot feeds to the split duplex HFDU are supplied from different circuits or split-wired, with separate switch-legs, a means to simultaneously disconnect these circuits must be provided at the panel board where they originate (NEC 210.7(C) 2002 Edition). A 2-pole circuit breaker or two single-pole circuit breakers with an approved handle tie can be used to accomplish this simultaneous disconnect. Feedthrough dimming panels, which are those without breakers, are recommended when using the HFDU.

How to understand ganging and derating
Standard ganging Ganging is the side-by-side mounting of two
or more dimmers or accessory devices under a multi-gang wallplate. Standard multi-gang installation: · Uses standard multi-gang electrical backboxes · Uses standard multi-gang wallplates · Requires fins to be removed from dimmers for proper spacing ("Fins Broken" ganging) · May require derating (i.e., reduction of dimmer capacity due to fin removal), see Derating Tables, pgs.172173
Custom ganging for Architectural style controls
For Architectural style dimmers and switches, it is possible to retain the maximum capacity of dimmers in multi-gang applications via custom architectural multi-gang:
· May require customized, wider-thanstandard wallplates
· May require wider-than-standard electrical backboxes
· Allows full capacity ("No Fins Broken") ganging
· Required for Nova® dimmers and for larger width (high capacity) architectural controls
· Visit www.lutron.com/customganging for additional information
