The 10AX rating handles lighting loads up to 2,300W on a 230V circuit, suitable for most domestic and commercial lighting applications including LED, halogen and incandescent bulbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for residential, commercial and healthcare installation, the switch fits a 16mm minimum back box depth and uses a traditional screw-fixed faceplate with screw cap covers included to hide the fixing points once installed. The 2-way switching configuration allows a single light or group of lights to be controlled from two different wall positions, commonly used for stairways, long hallways and rooms with multiple entry points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe white thermoset resin construction provides impact resistance and dimensional stability across varying temperatures, while the anti-microbial additive inhibits bacterial growth on the plate surface — a feature valued in kitchens, bathrooms, care homes and clinical environments. The square edge profile sits flush to the wall with a 9mm projection and an 86mm x 86mm face dimension that matches standard UK switch mounting patterns. Knightsbridge backs this switch with a 25-year warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e86 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e86 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProjection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMin.
