2-way switching allows a light or set of lights to be controlled from two separate locations. This is typically used for staircases or long hallways.
This switch is rated for standard lighting loads. Compatibility with specific LED bulbs, especially dimmable ones, should be checked with the LED manufacturer, as some low-power LEDs may require specific types of switches or resistors.
A minimum backbox depth of 25mm is required for installation.
No, this switch is designed for indoor use only and does not have an IP rating for protection against water or dust ingress.
2-way switching requires three wires between the two switch locations: a permanent live, a switched live, and a connection between the switches (often called a 'traveler'). A qualified electrician can advise on specific wiring requirements.
Use a soft, dry cloth. For tougher marks, a slightly damp cloth with water can be used, but ensure the switch is thoroughly dried before re-energizing the circuit. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Ensure the power supply is on and correctly connected. Verify wiring conforms to 2-way switching requirements. If unsure, consult a qualified electrician.
Check the wiring for the specific gang. Ensure the bulb or connected light fixture is functional. Test with another compatible fixture if possible.
This could indicate a loose connection or incompatibility with the light source (e.g., LED compatibility). Check all connections and consult the light fixture's manual.
Installation: This switch requires a minimum backbox depth of 25mm. It is designed for 2-way switching applications and should be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with current wiring regulations (BS 7671).
Compatibility: Operates at 250V and is rated for 10A, making it suitable for most standard domestic lighting circuits. Ensure your existing wiring is compatible with 2-way switching.
Care: To clean, first isolate the power supply. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the surface. For stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth (water only) and ensure the switch is completely dry before restoring power. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
