{"product_id":"1-gang-retractive-light-switch-navy-blue","title":"1 Gang Retractive Home Automation Switch - Navy Blue","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eA single rocker in chrome sits on a flat navy blue plate with no visible screws, so the front reads as one clean piece. The action is retractive: the contact is made only while the rocker is held, and it springs back as soon as you let go. That is what lighting control and home automation systems ask for, since they read the press itself rather than a fixed on or off position. It is rated 10AX.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe reach for these where a house is being wired for automated or app controlled lighting and the switch on the wall still needs to look and feel like a switch. Hallways, landings, sitting rooms and bedrooms all suit it, and navy sits well against pale plaster, painted panelling or deeper heritage paint colours. It is one for anyone who wants a little colour at switch height instead of the usual white, and the 88mm square plate stays discreet beside a door frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlate and rocker are moulded polycarbonate, the navy carrying a chrome rocker for contrast, and the switch is double insulated. Indoors and on an ordinary household supply is where it belongs, in dry rooms well away from splashes. For cleaning, isolate the circuit first, then wipe the plate with a barely damp microfibre cloth and dry it off; solvents and cream cleaners will dull the colour, so keep them clear of it. It carries a ten year warranty. One of these on its own looks deliberate; a run of them down a hallway looks better still.\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\u003eNavy Blue\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\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.07KG\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.
