The switch carries a 10A rating at 230V and uses three poles to isolate both fan live, neutral and switched live connections in a single action.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstalled typically in en-suite bathrooms, WCs and utility rooms, the switch sits between the fan unit and the wiring circuit, allowing safe isolation for maintenance without needing to switch off the entire room's power. The rounded-edge faceplate measures 87.75mm square with a 7.5mm projection from the wall once fitted onto a 16mm minimum back box depth. The matt black finish provides a low-sheen neutral tone that suits contemporary, industrial and monochrome interiors without the reflective glare of polished finishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe faceplate is pressed from premium-grade steel with a built-in gasket behind the plate, providing improved dust resistance over basic plastic faceplates. The screw terminals accept standard UK wiring, and an earth terminal is provided for Class I earthed installations. The switch is certified to BS EN 60669-1 and BS EN 60669-2-4, with IP20 rating suitable for general indoor use in 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\u003e87.75 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e87.75 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProjection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMin.
