{"product_id":"1-gang-double-20a-light-switch-matt-black","title":"20A Double Pole Switch with Neon - Matt Black","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eA single gang switch on a screwless plate, finished in matt black with a chrome rocker and a neon indicator that glows while the circuit is live. The plate is square at 88mm, with clean edges and no screw heads on the face, so the black front reads as one flat panel. Switching is double pole and rated at 20A, so both conductors are broken when the rocker is thrown.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt suits kitchens, utility rooms, hallways and landings, anywhere you want to see at a glance whether the circuit is on. We would fit this where the sockets and switches are already dark, or where a pale wall wants a small point of contrast. The neon earns its keep behind a door or at the top of a stair, when the light it controls sits out of view. It is one we point people towards when the switch will be seen as much as used, in a hallway where black ironmongery is already in place. Keep it to dry indoor rooms on a household supply, away from splashes and steam.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe plate is moulded in polycarbonate rather than pressed metal, double insulated, and the matt finish keeps the black even across the face without the sheen that shows every mark. A dry cloth is all it asks; if the face needs more, a barely damp one, then dry it off, and nothing abrasive, since scouring will polish the matt away. It carries a ten year warranty. Where several plates share a wall, keeping them all matt black and screwless is what makes the run look deliberate, and the chrome rocker gives just enough lift against the dark face.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMatt Black\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSecond Colour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChrome\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType of Finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCore\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.10KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e88mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e88mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBack Box Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterials Used\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolycarbonate, Metal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMax.
