Single Two-Way Flush-Mount Wall Switch 10A 250V - Matte Black

Two control points for a single lighting circuit: that is the purpose of this flush-mounted mechanism, designed for two-way switching (controlling the same circuit from two points). Its modular 81 x 81 mm format and screwless quick-connect terminals speed up wiring room by room, while the matte black faceplate suits contemporary interiors and public-access premises.

Technical details

Features

• Two-way switching function (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 positive mechanical action
• Screwless connection: 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 black faceplate that stands out against light-colored walls and hides signs of use

Installation

Isolate the circuit at the distribution board and check that it is de-energized before starting work. Two-way switching requires two identical mechanisms connected to each other by two traveler wires: the first receives the live wire, and the second supplies the light fitting. Each mechanism fits into a flush-mount box with a 6 cm diameter (5 to 10 cm accepted) and at least 27 mm of usable depth. Push 0.75 to 2.5 mm² conductors directly into the screwless quick-connect terminals; then secure the mechanism with claws or screws, and fit the rocker and 1 to 5-gang finishing plate.

Where can you use this single two-way switch?

• Apartment building landings and passageways: one switch on each floor served
• Long office or clinic hallways, with a switch at each end
• Hotel rooms and suites: one switch by the entrance and a second by the bed
• Shops and retail spaces with two entrances or a pass-through storeroom
• Dry utility rooms and annexes, within the -20°C to +40°C range
