Hi, I'm new to the forum and just after some help with wiring a new light switch.

The switch in question has 3 green wires and 3 red wires, the 3 green are joined together and go to the earth on the back on the light fascia, the other 3 red are split....2 together and one by itself, I know its vague but any ideas on which wires go where for my new dimmer switch

Thanks

Ben

Leave the green wires where they are.
Connect the red wires to your new switch the same as they are in the old switch. 2 red in one terminal and 1 red in the other terminal.
