Setup, Compatibility & Care

This switch adheres to standard 86mm x 86mm dimensions, making it compatible with most standard UK-style back boxes. Ensure that the power supply to the circuit is completely isolated via the main fuse board before beginning any installation work. We recommend hiring a qualified electrician to ensure all wiring meets local electrical codes. To clean the satin steel surface, use a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, as these can scratch or degrade the metallic finish.
