Wessex Electrical Cooker Switch - Antique Brass - Gold

This Wessex Electrical cooker switch has a rating of 45 Amps (45A).

It is specifically designed for high-load kitchen appliances such as electric cookers, ovens, and hobs that require a 45A supply. It is not suitable for standard household outlets.

It is designed to fit standard UK single-gang electrical back boxes. Ensure the box is rated appropriately for the circuit load.

Double-pole isolation means that both the live and neutral conductors of the power supply are disconnected simultaneously, providing a complete break from the electricity supply for maximum safety.

Yes, the antique brass finish is designed to be durable for kitchen environments. However, regular cleaning with a soft cloth and avoiding harsh chemicals will help maintain its appearance.

The rear gasket provides a seal between the switch and the wall surface, helping to prevent moisture and dust ingress into the electrical components, which is beneficial in a kitchen environment.

Due to the high amperage and the nature of the appliance it controls, this switch must be installed by a qualified and certified electrician.

Verify that the main power supply to the circuit is on. Check all wiring connections to ensure they are secure and correct. Confirm the appliance itself is functioning correctly.

Inspect all wiring connections for looseness. Ensure the switch is not overloaded beyond its 45A rating. Consult a qualified electrician to check the circuit and appliance for faults.

Ensure no debris is obstructing the switch mechanism. If the issue persists, it may require replacement by a qualified electrician.
