Product Information

Full details

This Soho Lighting Bronze 10A 1 Gang 2 Way Switch is designed for homeowners seeking a classic, sophisticated look in period-style interiors. Its key benefit is the authentic, hand-finished matt bronze effect and screwless design, offering a seamless aesthetic. A caveat to consider is the Made To Order status, requiring a 7-day dispatch time. This product provides a single gang, two-way light switching solution with black inserts, featuring a screwless matt metal faceplate that replicates a subtle sheen and authenticates years of consistent use.

FAQs

What is the dispatch time for this switch?

This product is Made To Order and requires approximately 7 working days for dispatch.

Is this switch suitable for LED lighting?

Yes, this 10A switch is generally compatible with most LED lighting loads, provided the total load does not exceed the switch's rating.

How do I clean the matt bronze finish?

Wipe gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to preserve the unique hand-finished look.

Can this switch be used outdoors?

No, this switch is designed for indoor use only.

What does '1 Gang 2 Way' mean?

It means the switch controls one light circuit (1 Gang) and can be wired to operate that light from two separate locations (2 Way), such as at the top and bottom of stairs.

Are the black inserts part of the switch or a separate piece?

The black inserts are an integrated part of the switch's design, providing a visual contrast to the bronze faceplate.

What are the dimensions of the switch?

The dimensions are approximately 86mm x 86mm, which is a standard size for UK light switches.

Troubleshooting

Switch not functioning after installation

Verify that the power supply has been restored and that the wiring connections are secure and correct according to the 2-way switching diagram. If unsure, consult a qualified electrician.

Light flickers when switch is operated

Check that the switch is rated for the lighting load and that all connections are tight. Loose connections can cause arcing and flickering.

Faceplate does not sit flush or clip correctly

Ensure the underlying switch module is correctly mounted in the back box and that no wires are obstructing the faceplate. Make sure the correct faceplate for this module is being used.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This is a standard 1 gang, 2-way light switch designed to replace existing switches. Ensure the power is turned off at the mains before attempting installation. Refer to the wiring diagram provided with the product or consult a qualified electrician for correct installation. The screwless design simplifies the final fitting stage, with the faceplate clipping over the pre-installed switch module.

Compatibility:

Compatible with standard UK/EU back boxes. Suitable for controlling standard 10A lighting circuits. It is designed for indoor use.

Care:

To maintain the finish, wipe gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the hand-finished bronze effect. Regular dusting will help preserve its appearance.
