A red neon indicator above the switch rocker illuminates when the circuit is live, providing a visual check that power is flowing to the connected appliance even when the switch is in the off position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for cooker circuits and other high-load fixed appliances rated up to 45A (10,350W at 230V), the switch provides full double-pole isolation, cutting both live and neutral lines when switched off. This makes it safer than single-pole switching when servicing or cleaning fixed cooking appliances, as both conductors are physically disconnected from the supply. The 2-gang sizing allows the switch to be installed alongside a standard socket in a dual-box configuration, or used as a standalone cooker isolator where a larger plate is preferred over a 1-gang switch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe flat plate construction uses premium-grade steel with a polished brass finish and projects just 2.5mm from the wall once installed on a minimum 47mm back box. A built-in gasket between the plate and the wall improves draught-sealing and keeps dust ingress to a minimum. The polished brass develops a natural patina over time unless regularly buffed, giving a warm metallic accent that pairs with traditional, classical and warm-toned contemporary kitchens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e147.5 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.
