'6 Gang' means the plate has six individual switches. '2 Way' means each switch can control a light from two different locations, or you can have multiple switches controlling one light.
This specific model is a standard 2-way switch and is not designed for dimming. You would require a dedicated dimmer switch for that function.
No, this switch is designed for indoor use only. It features a moisture-resistant gasket for internal use but is not rated for external weather exposure.
Use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that can damage the finish. Always dry the switch after cleaning.
The dimensions of the switch plate are 86mm x 146mm x 4.5mm.
You can replace an existing switch plate with this one if the wall opening is compatible and the electrical wiring supports the number of switches. However, a qualified electrician must assess your existing wiring to ensure it can accommodate 6 switches and proper 2-way functionality.
Minimal maintenance is required. Regular gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is sufficient to keep the brushed brass finish looking its best. Ensure no excessive moisture comes into contact with the switch.
Ensure the wiring is correctly connected by a qualified electrician. Verify that the circuit breaker is on and the bulb is functional. If using 2-way switching, check both switches are wired correctly.
This may indicate an issue with the wiring or a faulty bulb. Consult a qualified electrician to inspect the connections and the bulb.
Check that the underlying backbox is securely mounted and level. Ensure no wires are obstructing the plate. Re-align the plate carefully and re-apply gentle pressure.
Avoid using harsh cleaning agents. Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth and dry thoroughly. If the discoloration persists, it may be a result of environmental factors or chemical contact.
Setup: This switch is designed for standard mains voltage electrical installations. Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure safety and compliance with building regulations. The screwless design requires careful alignment during mounting.
Compatibility: This is a 2-way switch, meaning it can be used to control a light from two different locations. It is compatible with standard UK backboxes and requires a minimum mounting depth. Ensure your existing wiring configuration supports 2-way switching if you intend to use both switches for a single light. It is designed to control lighting circuits.
Care: To maintain the appearance of the brushed brass finish, use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth for cleaning. Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish. For deeper cleaning, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing with a clean damp cloth and thorough drying.
