Each gang is rated at 10AX (2,300W per switch on 230V), allowing the plate to control multiple lighting circuits, multi-zone room layouts, or separate entrance and exit switching points from a single wall position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for residential hallways, open-plan living areas, and commercial spaces where multiple lighting zones converge at one control point, the 2-way wiring on each gang allows the same lights to be controlled from two separate switch locations. The double-plate format occupies two standard back boxes side-by-side, with a combined width of 146mm and a 16mm minimum back box depth requirement. The white finish pairs with standard electrical accessories across most UK installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe plate is moulded from thermoset resin with a gently contoured 7mm profile and rounded edges that reduce sharp corners at wall junctions. An anti-microbial coating tested to ISO 22196:2011 inhibits bacterial growth on the switch surface, making the plate suitable for care homes, schools, hospitality and multi-occupancy residential buildings. Screw cap covers are included to hide fixing screws once the plate is installed, giving a clean finished appearance. The switch carries a 25-year warranty and an IP20 rating for indoor dry locations.\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\u003e146 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProjection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMin.
