Are ceiling fan light fixtures dimmable?

Are ceiling fan light fixtures dimmable? Only when the fixture or bulb is marked dimmable, and only with the dimmer that driver lists. Do not put a fan motor on a bulb dimmer. If the sheet never says dimmable, use an on/off switch.

How to decide

1. Read the word dimmable on the fixture or lamp, not only on the dimmer box.
2. Match TRIAC or ELV if the sheet names one.
3. A single low-watt LED can sit under the dimmer minimum and flicker.
