My rooms will have wall lights and ceiling lights switched and dimmed independently

I will have 2x push switches in the wall and I will have 3core+earth cable from switch box to ceiling where dimmers are

Thus, I want to know if I can wire both switch commons together on one of the 3 cores and link this to both sx of two dimmers, and then use other cores from each switch to each s1 of 2 dimmers. I don't want dimmers to get upset if I connect their sx together..

I drew a picture and attached it (the no bulbs picture)

Alternatively if it's not possible, can one dimmer control another? Can I connect my two switches to s1 and s2 of first dimmer, and program system so that when s2 is closed on first dimmer, it tells second dimmer what to do? I drew another picture (with bulbs this time)

Sir, connecting together Sx could lead to problems with the Dimmers. They are not designed to be connected like this.

 

On the other hand it is possible to control the second Dimmer with S2 input of the first Dimmer. Only proper configuration is needed in association panel (adding second Dimmer to association group 4 and 5 of the first Dimmer). S2 is an independent input and it's state is independent of the first Dimmer state.
