FAQs

Does this switch come with a back box?

No, the package includes the switch and faceplate only; it is designed to fit into standard existing UK wall boxes.

Can I use this for a 1-way circuit?

Yes, this 2-way switch can be easily wired for a standard 1-way circuit by using the Common and L1 terminals.

What is the finish of the switch?

The switch features a sophisticated brown colour, designed to provide a premium, modern look.

Can I install this in a 16mm deep box?

No, a minimum of 25mm depth is strictly required for the mechanism to seat properly.

Is this switch dimmable?

No, this is a standard on/off switch, not a dimmer switch.

What should I do if I have a 10-year warranty claim?

Keep your proof of purchase and contact Varilight customer support with your order details.

Troubleshooting

Switch feels loose or won't snap on

Ensure the mounting plate screws are flush against the box and that no wires are obstructing the clip-on tabs.

Light flickering or not working

Check all terminal connections for tightness and ensure the wiring matches the original configuration of the previous switch.

Faceplate difficult to remove

Use a small flat-head screwdriver to gently leverage the front plate at the notched relief points.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Clean, screwless design enhances room aesthetics
  • Durable construction with a 10-year manufacturer guarantee
  • Compatible with common 2-way wiring setups
  • Easy to maintain and wipe clean due to smooth faceplate

Cons

  • Requires a minimum 25mm deep back box
  • Not suitable for heavy-duty appliances beyond lighting circuits
  • Fixed colour finish may not match all interior themes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before installation, ensure the mains power is isolated at the consumer unit. Verify that your wall box has at least 25mm of depth; if it is shallower, you may need to use a mounting spacer or replace the back box. The installation involves screwing the mounting plate to the wall box first, followed by snapping the decorative front faceplate into position. To clean the switch, use a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvent-based sprays, as these can damage the brown finish over time.
