Description

The Knightsbridge 20A 1-gang double pole switch pairs a polished chrome ultra-flat faceplate with an integrated neon indicator and a flush-mounted rocker. The switch isolates both live and neutral lines when off, providing full isolation for fixed appliances rated up to 4,600W on 230V mains, making it suitable for water heaters, electric towel rails, and kitchen appliances that need dedicated switching.

Designed for residential and light commercial installation, the switch requires a 25mm minimum back box depth and projects just 2.5mm from the wall once fitted. The ultra-flat construction uses a built-in gasket behind the faceplate to create a tight seal against the wall surface, preventing dirt ingress around the edges. The neon indicator glows when the switch is in the on position, providing a visual confirmation of appliance status from across the room.

The polished chrome finish is applied to premium-grade steel and provides a reflective, mirror-like surface that pairs with contemporary bathroom and kitchen fittings. The matching polished chrome rocker sits flush with the faceplate surface when off, maintaining the ultra-slim 2.5mm profile. The switch carries EN 60669-1 certification and an IP20 rating for indoor dry locations, with a 25-year warranty from Knightsbridge.

Frequently Asked

What appliances is a 20A switch used for?

A 20A double pole switch is typically used for fixed appliances like electric water heaters, immersion heaters, electric towel rails, and larger kitchen appliances. The 20A rating handles loads up to 4,600W on 230V mains. This is higher than the 13A rating on standard socket outlets, which top out at 3,120W.

What does the neon indicator do?

The neon indicator glows when the switch is in the on position, providing a visual confirmation that power is flowing to the appliance. This is useful for appliances like water heaters that are often located out of sight, allowing you to confirm the switch status from across the room.

What back box depth is required?

A 25mm minimum back box depth is needed for safe installation. The ultra-flat faceplate adds just 2.5mm of projection from the wall once fitted, making this one of the lowest-profile switches available in the Knightsbridge range.

Is this switch suitable for bathrooms?

The IP20 rating means this switch is suitable for indoor dry locations only. For bathroom installation, the switch must be located outside zones 0, 1, and 2 as defined in BS 7671 wiring regulations. Most bathrooms install a 20A DP switch for a water heater on the outside wall adjacent to the bathroom door, rather than inside the room itself.
