Product Information

Full details

The AET 4-Gang 2-Way Light Switch is designed for homeowners and electricians looking for a clean, modern aesthetic for their lighting controls. This unit allows for the independent operation of four separate lighting circuits with the added versatility of 2-way switching for dual-location control. While it offers a minimalist flat plate design that integrates well with contemporary interiors, users should ensure they have the proper electrical infrastructure, specifically a minimum 25 mm deep back box, before beginning installation.

FAQs

Does this switch come with a back box?

No, the back box must be purchased separately. You must ensure you have at least a 25 mm deep back box installed.

Can this switch handle LED lighting?

Yes, provided the total load of the LED lights does not exceed the 10 Amp rating of the switch.

Is this switch compatible with 1-way wiring?

Yes, 2-way switches can be used in 1-way circuits by simply utilizing the COM and L1 terminals.

What is the finish of the plate?

The switch features a white, modern flat plate finish.

Can I paint over the faceplate?

It is not recommended, as painting can interfere with the mechanical operation of the switches and potentially crack the finish.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Verify the circuit breaker is active and check that all wires are securely seated in the terminal blocks.

Switch feels loose or 'wobbly'

Ensure the mounting screws are tightened evenly against the back box and the plate is seated flush.

2-way switching is not working as expected

Double-check the common (COM) and traveler wire connections against the wiring diagram provided by your installer.

  • Back Box Requirement: This unit requires a back box with a minimum depth of 25 mm. Check your existing wall cavity depth before purchase.
