FAQs

What type of switching does this Varilight switch support?

This switch supports both 1-way and 2-way switching. This means it can be used as a standard switch or as part of a pair to control a light from two different locations.

What are the dimensions of the switch?

The dimensions of the Varilight ROCKERSWITCH2G10AB/ST are 89mm (width) x 89mm (height) x 25mm (depth).

Is this switch suitable for dimming lights?

No, this is a standard rocker switch and is not designed for dimming. A separate dimmer switch would be required for that functionality.

Can I install this switch myself?

While technically possible, it is strongly recommended to have this switch installed by a qualified electrician to ensure safety and compliance with all relevant electrical regulations.

What is the color of the switch?

The switch has a white finish.

How many lights can this switch control?

This is a 2-gang switch, meaning it has two independent switches on one plate, allowing it to control two separate light fixtures or circuits.

Troubleshooting

Switch not working

Ensure the power is switched on at the consumer unit. Verify all wiring connections are secure and correct. If issues persist, consult a qualified electrician.

One switch works, the other doesn't

Check the wiring for the non-functioning switch. Ensure the bulb or fixture connected to it is operational. If the wiring is correct, an internal fault may be present, requiring replacement.

Switch feels loose or stiff

If the switch feels loose, the faceplate may not be fully secured to the backbox. If it feels stiff, there might be debris or an issue with the internal mechanism; seek professional assessment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This switch is designed for installation into standard UK electrical backboxes. Professional installation by a qualified electrician is strongly recommended to ensure safety and compliance with electrical regulations. Ensure the power supply is isolated at the consumer unit before commencing any work.

Compatibility:

This is a standard light switch designed for use with mains voltage lighting circuits. It is compatible with most standard household lighting loads. It is not suitable for use with low-voltage lighting systems that require a specific transformer or dimmer switch unless explicitly stated otherwise by a qualified electrician.

Care:

To clean the switch, first isolate the power supply. Then, use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the finish.
