Lutron MAELV-600-IV 600W Magnetic Low Voltage Dimmer Ivory

Product Description

The LUTRON MAELV-600-IV is a 600-watt magnetic low voltage dimmer switch designed to control magnetic low voltage (MLV) lighting loads in residential and light commercial applications. It handles up to 600 watts of MLV load, providing smooth dimming performance without the flicker or buzz common with incompatible dimmers. The ivory finish integrates cleanly with standard wallplate configurations. Licensed electricians install this switch during new construction, renovation, and lighting upgrade projects where low voltage transformer-based fixtures are in use.

This dimmer is suited for single-pole or multi-location installations controlling magnetic low voltage lighting systems, including track heads, recessed fixtures, and pendant lights powered by MLV transformers. It is designed for standard residential and light commercial wiring environments. The ivory color coordinates with most standard decora-style wallplates. This model is not suitable for electronic low voltage (ELV) or incandescent-only dimmer applications where MLV compatibility is required.

Key Features

• 600-watt maximum load capacity for magnetic low voltage lighting circuits
• Designed specifically for magnetic low voltage (MLV) transformer-based fixtures
• Ivory finish for standard decora wallplate compatibility
• Smooth dimming without flicker or audible transformer buzz
• Single-pole installation capability

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install dimmer for magnetic low voltage lighting systems in residential and light commercial settings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC requirements for low voltage lighting control wiring. Shut off the branch circuit breaker and verify the absence of voltage with a meter before beginning any wiring work. Confirm the connected load is magnetic low voltage type, as this dimmer is not rated for electronic low voltage or standard incandescent-only circuits. Follow the manufacturer wiring diagram and local code requirements for wallbox fill calculations when installing alongside other devices.
