Product Information

Full details

This Soho Lighting 12 Gang RM Rectangular Module Grid Plate is designed for individuals building custom switch plates for homes and utility areas. Its key benefit is the flexibility to combine various RM modules, allowing for tailored functionality like multi-way switching or dedicated appliance controls on a single plate. A key consideration is its specific compatibility with RM modules only, not CM, EM, LT1, LT2, or LT3. The plate features a luxurious antique brass screwless finish, offering an aged look perfect for traditional interiors, and its low-profile design with a brushed finish helps obscure fingerprints.

FAQs

What type of modules can I use with this grid plate?

This grid plate is specifically designed for Soho Lighting RM modules. It is not compatible with CM, EM, LT1, LT2, or LT3 modules.

Does this plate come with switches, or do I need to buy them separately?

This is a grid plate only. You will need to purchase the individual RM modules (switches, sockets, etc.) separately to build your desired configuration.

How many modules can be fitted onto this plate?

The plate is designed to accommodate up to 12 RM modules.

Is the antique brass finish prone to tarnishing?

The antique brass finish is designed for durability and aesthetic appeal. While generally resistant, like all brass finishes, prolonged exposure to harsh conditions could affect it. Regular cleaning with a soft cloth is recommended.

Can I mix different types of RM modules on the same plate?

Yes, the key advantage of this grid system is the ability to mix and match various RM modules (e.g., standard switches, intermediate switches, indicator lights) to create a custom panel.

What is the benefit of a screwless design?

A screwless design offers a cleaner, more modern aesthetic by hiding mounting screws. It also simplifies installation and provides a smooth, unbroken surface.

What is included with the grid plate?

The grid plate comes complete with a back frame/yoke and a gasket, essential components for mounting and installation.

Troubleshooting

Plate does not sit flush against the wall.

Check that the wall box is correctly installed and that the yoke is securely mounted. Ensure no wires are obstructing the plate.

Modules are difficult to install into the grid plate.

Ensure you are using the correct RM modules and that they are aligned properly with the module slots before applying pressure.

Switch is not functioning.

Verify that the wiring connections to the specific module are correct and secure. Ensure the correct type of RM module is used for the intended function.

Finish appears damaged.

Avoid using harsh chemicals. Gently clean with a soft, slightly damp cloth. If damage is significant, contact the manufacturer.
