How do you know what you got for your dimmer combo ceiling / fan?
My ceiling fan switch must be replaced. But after I changed the line, I notice they have different power and voltage specifications. I’m not sure what I need power and variable voltage. How do I know which route to use?
response from Dale
and see if you can find information about replacing. Here in France, most ceiling fans is 120 volts. Therefore, I would like to buy a switch that at 120 volts with a minimum of 1000 up to 1200 watts rated. Even if your fan is at a lower power this review to you at work. Sincerely, Dale

Make sure it is rated for a fan, or the fan motor will make noise. The higher the wattage rating, the longer and more dependable the switch will be, but 600 watts is probably sufficient to operate any ceiling fan.
