Digital dimmer modules and reactive switches

[ICE]

Hi guys,

I've been in the industrial and commercial side of things for donkey's years and have just come back into the domestic side so am a bit behind on recent products.

i came across a flat today that had GET digital dimmer modules and reactive switches (what the f are these).

can anyone enlighten this poor old stuck in the past sparky?

thankyou.

Are you sure they weren't retractive switches? They have a spring loaded action so only have a momentary switching action.
Are they the GET dimmers with three buttons? If so then the retractive switch acts as a remote control to the dimmer. Clicking it will switch either on or off to the last set dimmer level and holding it dims it up and down.

Yes, sorry, I meant retractive..... DER!!!
