This Varilight Classic double light switch is designed for homeowners and interior designers seeking a blend of traditional aesthetics and modern functionality. Its key benefit is providing versatile control for two lighting circuits with a sophisticated brushed steel finish and contrasting black rockers. A potential caveat is that it is a fixed-function switch, meaning its wiring capabilities (1x 2-Way, 1x Intermediate) are specific and may not suit all complex lighting setups. This guide will help you understand its features, installation, and maintenance.

A 2-Way switch allows a light to be controlled from two locations. An Intermediate switch is used in conjunction with two 2-Way switches to control a light from three or more locations.
This is a standard switch, not a dimmer. It can control LED bulbs, but it does not offer dimming functionality. For dimming LEDs, a compatible Varilight LED dimmer switch is required.
'Classic' refers to the design range, which features a traditional raised bevel-edge profile and is designed to complement various interior styles.
No, this is a standard double light switch with 1x 2-Way and 1x Intermediate functionality. It is not a dimmer.

Standard UK double light switch dimensions apply. Please refer to product specifications if precise measurements are needed.
Use a soft, dry cloth. For tougher marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by thorough drying. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Check that the power is switched on at the mains. Verify all wiring connections are secure and correct for the 2-Way or Intermediate function. If unsure, consult a qualified electrician.
Ensure the switch is securely fastened to the backbox. Check that the mounting screws are tightened appropriately, but do not overtighten.
This may indicate a loose connection. Switch off power at the mains and re-check all wiring. Ensure the bulb type is compatible if using LED or low-energy bulbs; consider a Varilight LED dimmer if dimming is required.
Setup:
This switch is designed for standard UK electrical wiring systems. Installation requires electrical knowledge and should ideally be performed by a qualified electrician. Ensure the power is switched off at the mains before attempting any wiring.
