Description

The Knightsbridge 10AX 1-gang double pole switch controls two independent circuits from a single rocker, built around a matt black 304 stainless steel faceplate with a rounded edge profile and matching rocker. The double pole switching isolates both live and neutral lines when the switch is off, making it suitable for high-draw fixed appliances including bathroom extractor fans, immersion heaters and water heaters.

Designed for residential and light commercial installation, the switch fits a standard UK back box with a minimum depth of 16mm. The rounded edge plate includes a built-in gasket that sits flush against the wall, giving a cleaner finish than traditional flat plates and preventing debris or moisture from entering the plate edges. The 10AX rating handles loads up to 2,300W on a 230V supply, which covers most domestic fixed appliances.

The matt black finish is applied to 304 stainless steel, giving a low-sheen surface that resists fingerprints and minor scratches better than painted or powder-coated finishes. The rounded edge profile projects 11.8mm from the wall once fitted, giving the plate a subtle three-dimensional presence that pairs with both modern matt-black interior schemes and industrial-style spaces. The switch is certified to EN 60669-1 and carries a 25-year manufacturer guarantee.

Frequently Asked

What is a double pole switch used for?

A double pole switch isolates both the live and neutral lines when turned off, providing a higher level of safety than single-pole switching. It is commonly used for fixed appliances such as bathroom extractor fans, immersion heaters, water heaters and other devices where complete circuit isolation is required or recommended under building regulations.

What does the 10AX rating mean?

The 10AX rating indicates the switch can handle a maximum load of 10 amperes on a 230V AC supply, equivalent to approximately 2,300W. This covers most domestic fixed appliances including extractor fans, heaters and lighting circuits.

What is the minimum back box depth required?

The switch requires a minimum mounting box depth of 16mm. Standard UK metal back boxes for switches are typically 25mm or 35mm deep, both of which accommodate this switch comfortably.

Is the matt black finish durable?

Yes. The matt black finish is applied to 304 stainless steel, which resists fingerprints, minor scratches and corrosion better than painted or powder-coated alternatives. The switch carries a 25-year manufacturer guarantee covering the finish and mechanism.
