What does BS3676 mean?

Troubleshooting

Light does not switch on from either location

Verify that the circuit breaker is active and check that the common wire is correctly connected to the COM terminal.

Switch feels loose in the wall box

Ensure the M3.5 fixing screws are fully tightened and that the wall box is securely set behind the plaster.

Intermittent light flickering

Check all terminal connections inside the back box to ensure they are tight and that no wire insulation is trapped under the screw terminals.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Simple and intuitive installation process
  • Compliant with BS3676 safety standards
  • Versatile 2-way switching capability
  • Durable construction for long-term use

Cons

  • Limited to a basic white plastic finish
  • Not suitable for heavy-duty industrial appliances
  • Requires existing wall box infrastructure

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should always be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure safety and compliance with local building regulations. Ensure the power is isolated at the consumer unit before beginning. This switch is designed for standard flush-mounting into an existing wall box. To install, connect the relevant conductors to the Common (COM), L1, and L2 terminals as required by your circuit's specific 2-way wiring diagram. Use the included M3.5 x 20mm screws to secure the faceplate. For maintenance, keep the switch clean by wiping the surface with a dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive pads, as these can yellow or damage the plastic finish over time.
