Metal Clad Switches

Knightsbridge metal clad switches suit commercial and industrial wiring where a tougher steel plate earns its place.

Switches built for tougher rooms

Metal clad switches suit commercial and industrial spaces where a painted plastic plate would not last. The steel plate stands up to knocks and the odd trolley in plant rooms, workshops and service areas, mounting on its own back box for a solid fix that a plastic faceplate would struggle to match. Where wiring is on show and working hard, this is the kind of switch that earns its place.

Lighting and two-way control

For lighting, the range includes 10AX one to three gang two-way plates, so a single switch or a bank of them can control circuits from more than one position. The two-way action suits corridors, stairwells and larger rooms where you want to operate the same lights from either end, and the multi-gang plates group several switches behind one tough front.

Double pole switches with neon

Heavier loads are covered by 20A and 45A double pole switches, several fitted with a neon indicator that shows at a glance when the circuit is live. Double pole switching breaks both conductors, which suits fixed appliances and isolation points. There is also a triple pole fan isolator for taking a fan fully out of service during maintenance, breaking all the conductors at once so the unit is properly dead to work on.

Switched fused spurs

The range carries 13A switched fused spurs, some with a flex outlet for running a lead straight out to a fixed appliance. A switched fused spur gives a local on-off point with its own fuse, handy for a single piece of kit fed off a circuit such as a heater or a hand dryer, where you want to isolate one appliance without killing the whole run.

Steel finishes

Plates come in powder-coated and galvanised steel in grey and silver, finishes chosen for durability in working interiors. A qualified electrician should carry out the wiring and testing. Free UK delivery over £99, worldwide shipping.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where are metal clad switches used?

They suit commercial and industrial spaces such as plant rooms, workshops and service areas, where the steel plate stands up to knocks better than a plastic one.

What does a double pole switch do?

A double pole switch breaks both conductors when it is turned off, which suits fixed appliances and isolation points. The 20A and 45A double pole switches in the range cover heavier loads, with several fitted with a neon indicator.

What is a switched fused spur for?

A 13A switched fused spur gives a local on-off point with its own fuse for a single fixed appliance fed off a circuit. Some versions include a flex outlet so a lead can run straight out to the appliance.

What does the neon indicator show?

The neon lights when the circuit through the switch is live, giving a quick visual check of whether power is present.

What finishes are available?

Plates come in powder-coated and galvanised steel in grey and silver, finishes chosen for durability in working interiors.
