FAQs
What does '2 Way Switching' mean?
2 Way Switching allows you to control a single light from two different switch locations. This is achieved by using two 2-way switches wired together in a specific circuit.
Is this switch suitable for LED lights?
Yes, this switch is generally compatible with LED lights, provided the total wattage does not exceed the 10A rating. Some LED dimmers may have specific compatibility requirements, but this is a standard on/off switch.
What are the dimensions of the switch?
The switch plate measures 86mm x 86mm, fitting standard UK single gang backboxes.
Can I use this switch for a 1-way circuit?
While designed for 2-way switching, it can technically be wired as a 1-way switch, but it's more cost-effective to use a dedicated 1-way switch in that scenario.
How do I clean the matt white finish?
Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to wipe the surface. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the finish.
What is the amperage rating?
The maximum amperage rating for this switch is 10A, which is suitable for most standard domestic lighting circuits.
Does this switch come with a backbox?
No, this switch is designed to fit into a standard UK single backbox, which is typically purchased separately or already installed.
Troubleshooting
Switch is not working.
Verify that the power supply is on and that all wiring connections are secure. Double-check the 2-way wiring configuration.
Light flickers when switch is operated.
Check all wire connections for tightness. Ensure the bulb is compatible and securely fitted. If the problem persists, consult an electrician.
Switch plate is difficult to attach.
Ensure the backbox is correctly fitted and flush with the wall. Check for any obstructions behind the plate. The screwless plate should click into place; do not force it.
