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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\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\u003e89 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e89 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProjection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMin.
