Well I am an electrician. Dimmers come in a few sizes and styles. They will get hot but if you can not touch it, yes turn it off. If you have a incandescent fixture you need a incandescent dimmer like wise fluorescent dimmer with fluorescent fixtures. Load is the next big item you need to know the load and only load the dimmer to 80% (1000 watts, load it only 800 watts as not to overload the dimmer). I have had brand new items bad out of the box. dimmers and occupancy sensors more so. Hope this was of help.
Steve
