Cooper Touch Dimmer with Locator LED
A paddle-style wirewound dimmer switch with a built-in locator LED for bedrooms, rated for 600W incandescent loads. It operates as a wirewound variable resistor, controlling light output by adjusting resistance. The locator LED is an accessory illumination feature that does not alter its primary classification as a wirewound dimmer.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the dimmer is presented as a complete switch assembly with additional switching functions
Switches for a voltage not exceeding 1,000 V are classified in heading 85.36, which may apply if the product's switching function is more than just resistance variation.
