{"product_id":"3-gang-2-way-light-switch-piano-black","title":"3 Gang 2 Way Light Switch - Piano Black","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThree rockers sit on a single screwless plate, finished in high gloss piano black with chrome inserts that pick up light whether the switch is up or down. Each gang is wired two way, so it can work on its own or in a pair with another switch on the same circuit. The plate is slim and square with softly rounded corners, and the black face is left unbroken by visible screw heads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe would use this where several lighting circuits arrive at one point: a sitting room with pendants, wall lights and a lamp circuit, or a kitchen splitting task light from general light. Black plates earn their place on walls painted a deep colour or papered in a dark print, where a pale plate sits forward and draws the eye to the door frame instead of the room. In a stairwell or a long hallway it pairs with a second switch so the light can be killed from either end, which is the arrangement we fit most often at the top and bottom of stairs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe plate and rockers are moulded polycarbonate, double insulated, and intended for indoor use on domestic lighting circuits. Gloss black is honest about fingerprints, so keep a dry microfibre cloth nearby and give the plate a wipe with the lighting circuit switched off; skip abrasive pads and never spray cleaner into the gaps around the rockers. It carries a ten year warranty. Visually it does most of its work when the lights are off, reading as a quiet dark rectangle with bright chrome lines across it, and we would keep the rest of the wall plates in the same finish so the switching disappears into the scheme.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePiano Black\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSecond Colour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChrome\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType of Finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCore\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.10KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e88mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e88mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBack Box Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterials Used\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolycarbonate, Metal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMax.
