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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\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\u003e87.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e87.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProjection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMin.
