A double pole switch disconnects both the live and neutral conductors of a circuit simultaneously, providing a higher level of isolation than a single pole switch.

This switch module is rated for 20A.

Do I need a qualified electrician to install this?

How do I clean the brushed brass finish?

Gently wipe with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Can I mix and match modules on the grid plate?

Yes, the RM and Dual (RM+CM) grid systems allow you to combine various modules like switches, dimmers, and isolators to create custom panels.

What kind of appliances is this suitable for isolating?

It is suitable for high-power appliances that require complete isolation, such as ovens, washing machines, dishwashers, or immersion heaters.

Troubleshooting

Switch is loose in the grid plate.

Ensure the module is correctly clipped into the compatible Soho Lighting grid plate and that the plate is securely mounted to the wall.

Verify that the double pole switch is in the 'ON' position and that the wiring connections are secure and correct. Consult a qualified electrician if unsure.
