Is this switch suitable for dimming?

Does this switch come with a gasket?

Installation typically requires a standard back box; please check the specific box requirements for your wall type.

Can it be used as a 1-way switch?

Yes, the switch is fully capable of 1-way operation by utilizing the common and L1 terminals.

Troubleshooting

Light does not switch on

Check all wire connections at the terminal blocks and ensure the circuit breaker has not tripped.

Switch feels loose or wobbly

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Controls six different lighting zones from a single panel
  • Sophisticated black finish complements modern home decor
  • Supports both 1-way and 2-way circuit switching
  • Sturdy build quality from the reputable Varilight Classic range

Cons

  • Requires significant space within the back box due to the 6-gang mechanism
  • Black finish may show fingerprints or dust more easily than white alternatives
  • Installation requires confidence with electrical wiring standards

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting, ensure the power is turned off at the mains. Use a standard back box suitable for 6-gang switches; verify that the depth of your existing wall box is sufficient for the switch depth. Connect the live wires according to the 1-way or 2-way wiring diagram appropriate for your circuit needs. To maintain the appearance, wipe the bevelled edge faceplate with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive materials that could mar the black finish.
