FAQs

An isolator switch allows you to safely disconnect the power supply to an extractor fan, which is essential for maintenance, cleaning, or repair work.

Is this switch suitable for all types of fans?

This switch is specifically designed for extractor fans in bathrooms and wet rooms and is rated for 10A. It's essential to ensure your fan's power requirements do not exceed this rating.

Do I need an electrician to install this switch?

Yes, due to the nature of electrical work, particularly in wet areas, installation should always be performed by a qualified and certified electrician to ensure safety and compliance with regulations.

How do I clean the brushed copper finish?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the surface. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could scratch or damage the finish.

What does '3 Pole' mean for this switch?

A 3-pole switch disconnects both the live and neutral conductors simultaneously, providing a higher level of safety compared to single-pole switches.

The switch measures 86mm x 86mm x 2mm.

Can this switch be used for general lighting circuits?

Troubleshooting

Switch is stiff or difficult to operate

Ensure no obstructions are present and that the switch is correctly mounted in the back box. If the issue persists, consult a qualified electrician.

Extractor fan does not turn on after flipping the switch

Verify that the switch is in the 'ON' position. Check the connection to the extractor fan and the main power supply. Ensure the fan itself is functional.
