FAQs
Does this switch require a deep backbox?
No, it is designed to fit standard UK 86mm x 86mm backboxes, but ensure your existing box provides enough depth for the wiring.
Can I use this for dimmer control?
No, this is a standard on/off switch and does not possess dimming capabilities.
Is the bronze finish prone to tarnishing?
The finish is high-quality, but regular maintenance with a dry cloth will keep it looking its best.
Can I install this myself?
We recommend professional installation by a qualified electrician to ensure safety and code compliance.
What is the amperage rating?
The switch is rated for 10A, which is standard for most residential lighting applications.
Troubleshooting
Switch feels loose or does not click
Ensure the switch is securely fastened to the backbox and that no wiring is obstructed behind the faceplate.
Light flickering after installation
Check that all terminal connections are tight and that no stray wire strands are touching the backbox or other terminals.
