FAQs

Is this switch suitable for outdoor use?

No, the Trendi Switch 2 Gang Light Switch is intended for indoor use only and is designed for domestic lighting circuits.

Do I need an earth wire for this switch?

No, this product does not require an earth connection as per its safety specifications.

What type of lighting can I control with this switch?

You can control mains, low voltage, and LED lighting with this versatile switch.

How do I clean the screwless faceplate?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the faceplate. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.

What size back box is recommended?

A 25mm or deeper back box is recommended for installation.

Can this switch be used for dimming lights?

This is a standard on/off rocker switch. If you wish to dim lights, you would need a compatible dimmer switch, not this standard switch. Ensure any dimmer used is compatible with LED loads if applicable.

What are the dimensions of the switch plate?

The faceplate measures 88 x 88mm.

Troubleshooting

Switch not turning on the light.

Verify that the power is on at the mains. Check all wire connections to the switch terminals. Ensure the bulb is functional and correctly installed.

Flickering lights when using LED bulbs.

Ensure the LED bulbs are compatible with the switch and not exceeding the maximum load rating. Some LED dimmers may require specific LED types for stable performance.

Light remains on or off in both switch positions (2-way setup).

Check the wiring configuration for the 2-way switching. Ensure the 'switched live' and 'intermediate' wires are correctly connected between the two switches.

Switch feels loose.

Ensure the faceplates are securely attached and that the internal mounting screws are tightened appropriately against the back box. Check that the back box itself is firmly fixed to the wall.
