Flush-Mounted Single Two-Way Wall Switch 10A 250V - Matte White

Controlling the same light from two separate locations makes it easier to use in both homes and commercial premises. This flush-mounted mechanism provides two-way switching (controlling the same circuit from two points) in a modular 81 x 81 mm format. Screwless quick-connect terminals, a matte white front and compatibility with standard flush-mounting boxes make installation quick and ensure a consistent finish throughout the installation.

Features

• Two-way switching (controlling the same circuit from two points): either switch can turn the light on or off regardless of the position of the other
• Large square rocker, operable with a finger, hand or elbow, with a crisp mechanical action
• Screwless wiring: quick-connect terminals reduce wiring time and eliminate the need to retighten connections
• Modular design: the mechanism can be combined with other switches or sockets behind a 1- to 5-gang finishing plate
• Non-reflective matte white front with a neutral shade that remains easy to see in grazing light and matches other white electrical fittings

Installation

Switch off the power at the consumer unit and check that the circuit is de-energized before starting any work. Installation must be carried out in pairs: two two-way switch mechanisms connected by two traveller wires, with the first receiving the live wire and the second connecting to the light. Fit each mechanism into a 6 cm diameter flush-mounting box (boxes from 5 to 10 cm are suitable) with at least 27 mm of depth. Insert conductors from 0.75 to 2.5 mm² into the screwless quick-connect terminals, secure the mechanism using the claws or screws, then clip on the rocker and the 1- to 5-gang finishing plate.

Where can you use this single two-way switch?

• Stairwells in houses and apartment buildings: one switch at the bottom and another at the top of the stairs
• Office corridors and commercial passageways: switch the lights on and off at either end
• Hotel rooms and furnished rentals: a switch by the entrance paired with one by the bed
• Meeting rooms and workspaces with two entrances
• Storerooms, back rooms and dry utility rooms, within the -20°C to +40°C temperature range
