Description

The Knightsbridge 10AX 1-gang DP switch features a brushed chrome faceplate with rounded edges and a matching metal rocker, built from 304 stainless steel. The double pole switching isolates both live and neutral lines when switched off, making it suitable for high-draw circuits such as bathroom extractor fans, towel radiators, and dual-circuit lighting control where full isolation is preferred.

Designed for residential and light commercial installation, the switch fits a 16mm minimum back box depth and includes a built-in gasket around the plate perimeter that sits flush against the wall surface. The 10AX rating handles loads up to 2,300W on 230V, exceeding the capacity of standard 6A lighting switches and providing headroom for appliances, fans and multi-bulb circuits.

The brushed chrome finish on the 304 stainless steel plate provides a mid-tone metallic surface that minimises fingerprint visibility and pairs well with chrome tapware, handles and other metal fixtures in bathrooms, kitchens and contemporary interiors. The rounded edge profile softens the transition between wall and plate, giving a more refined finish than square-edge alternatives.

Frequently Asked

What is double pole switching and when is it needed?

Double pole (DP) switching isolates both the live and neutral lines when the switch is off, providing full circuit isolation. This is required by UK wiring regulations for certain appliances such as bathroom extractor fans and towel radiators, and is preferred over single pole switching in high-draw circuits where complete isolation adds safety.

What back box depth is required?

A 16mm minimum mounting box depth is needed for safe installation. The switch projects 11.8mm from the wall surface once fitted.

What is the 10AX rating?

The 10AX rating indicates a 10 ampere switch suitable for resistive, inductive and capacitive loads. On 230V mains this handles up to 2,300W, exceeding the capacity of standard 6A lighting switches and providing headroom for extractor fans, multi-bulb circuits and other moderate-draw appliances.

Is the switch certified to UK wiring regulations?

Yes. The switch is certified to EN 60669-1 and carries a 25-year manufacturer guarantee. It includes an earth terminal and is rated IP20 for indoor use in dry locations.
