Description

The Knightsbridge 10AX 1-gang DP switch is a single-gang double pole switch housed in a white rounded-edge faceplate. The 7mm plate depth gives a low-profile fit to the wall, and the gently curved edges soften the visual transition between plate and wall surface. The plate is manufactured from thermoset resin and carries an anti-microbial coating tested to ISO 22196:2011, which inhibits bacterial growth on the switch surface.

Designed for controlling lighting circuits up to 10AX at 230V 50Hz, the switch isolates both live and neutral lines when turned off, providing double pole switching. This makes it suitable for circuits where full electrical isolation is needed, such as bathroom extractor fans, outdoor lighting circuits, or dedicated appliance circuits. The switch fits a standard 16mm minimum back box depth and uses screw terminals for cable termination. The white finish includes screw cap covers to conceal fixing screws once installed.

The rounded edge design gives the plate a softer appearance than sharp-edged alternatives, making it pair well with residential interiors where the standard square-edged plate might feel too industrial. The anti-microbial coating is particularly relevant in communal areas, healthcare settings, care homes, or any environment where multiple users regularly touch the switch surface. The coating does not wear off with standard cleaning or use under normal conditions.

Knightsbridge certifies this switch to EN 60669-1 standards and backs it with a 25-year warranty. The white finish remains colour-stable under UV exposure and does not yellow over time when exposed to daylight or LED light sources.

Frequently Asked

What does DP mean on a light switch?

DP stands for double pole. A double pole switch isolates both the live and neutral lines when turned off, whereas a single pole switch only breaks the live line. This provides complete electrical isolation and is required in some circuit applications such as bathroom extractor fans or outdoor lighting.

What back box depth is needed?

A 16mm minimum back box depth is required for safe installation. The 7mm plate projection adds to the final wall thickness, resulting in approximately 23mm total projection from the wall surface once fitted.

What does the anti-microbial coating do?

The anti-microbial coating inhibits bacterial growth on the switch surface. It has been third-party tested to ISO 22196:2011 and is designed to reduce the spread of bacteria in environments where multiple people touch the switch regularly, such as care homes, healthcare settings or communal areas.

Can this switch be used with LED lighting?

Yes. The 10AX rating at 230V handles typical domestic LED lighting circuits without issue. The switch uses mechanical contacts rather than electronic components, so it is fully compatible with dimmable and non-dimmable LED bulbs when paired with an appropriate dimmer on separate circuits.
