Description

The Knightsbridge 20A 1-gang DP switch controls fixed appliances rated up to 4,600W on 230V mains, built into a square-edge antique brass faceplate with a matching metal rocker and a neon indicator above the switch. Double-pole switching isolates both live and neutral when off, giving cleaner isolation than single-pole switching for high-draw appliances like immersion heaters, water heaters, and commercial beverage equipment.

Designed for kitchens, utility rooms, plant rooms and commercial environments where fixed appliances need dedicated switching, the 20A rating handles loads that would exceed standard 10AX light switches. The neon indicator glows red when the circuit is live, confirming the appliance is powered without needing to check the appliance itself. The square-edge faceplate sits flush to the wall with visible screws — a functional style that suits traditional, industrial and commercial settings.

The antique brass finish shows a darker, aged patina compared to polished brass, giving the plate a bronze-like tone that pairs with period properties, heritage restorations, and warm-toned contemporary interiors. The premium-grade steel construction carries a 25-year warranty. The plate fits a standard 25mm minimum back box and includes screw terminals for standard fixed wiring. A built-in gasket around the back of the plate improves dust resistance and gives a tighter seal to the wall.

Frequently Asked

What appliances is this switch rated for?

The 20A rating handles fixed appliances up to 4,600W on 230V mains. Typical uses include immersion heaters, water heaters, electric towel rails, commercial espresso machines, and other high-draw equipment that requires dedicated switching beyond standard 10AX light switches.

What does the neon indicator show?

The neon glows red when the circuit is live, confirming the appliance is powered. This allows you to check the switch status from across the room without needing to inspect the appliance itself or check a separate indicator light on the equipment.

What is double-pole switching?

Double-pole (DP) switching breaks both the live and neutral conductors when the switch is turned off, giving cleaner isolation than single-pole switching which only breaks the live. This is required by UK wiring regulations for certain fixed appliances and is considered safer for high-power equipment.

Is this a screwless plate?

No. The square-edge style uses visible screws to fix the faceplate to the mounting box. For a screwless version in antique brass, search for Knightsbridge screwless ranges at Niori.
