Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This switch is designed for installation into standard UK electrical backboxes. Ensure the power supply is completely isolated at the mains before attempting installation. Follow standard wiring practices for a 20A double pole switch, connecting the appliance's load and line wires appropriately. The captive screws aid in securing the switch to the backbox.
Compatibility:
This switch is rated for 20A and is intended for the direct connection of fixed appliances such as refrigerators, water heaters, central heating boilers, and other similar high-power devices. It is not suitable for controlling lighting circuits.
Care:
To maintain the switch's appearance and anti-microbial properties, clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the surface. The anti-microbial properties are inherent to the material and do not require special cleaning agents to remain effective. Its resistance to fading and discolouration means minimal maintenance is needed to keep it looking its best.
