Description

The Knightsbridge 45A DP switch is a double-pole cooker or shower switch rated at 45A with a neon indicator that illuminates when the circuit is live. The switch occupies a 2-gang faceplate footprint (146mm x 86mm) and features a large red rocker against a white thermoset resin plate with gently rounded edges and a 7mm profile. Double-pole switching isolates both live and neutral lines when turned off, providing additional safety for high-current appliances.

Designed for residential kitchens, utility rooms and bathrooms controlling electric cookers, ovens and electric showers up to 45A, the switch fits a standard 47mm minimum back box depth. The neon indicator provides at-a-glance confirmation that the circuit is powered, which is useful for checking isolator status before maintenance or when diagnosing appliance issues. The red rocker gives clear visual distinction from standard lighting switches.

The white thermoset resin construction is more impact-resistant and heat-tolerant than standard thermoplastic, making it suitable for locations near cooker hobs or shower enclosures. The faceplate incorporates anti-microbial properties tested to ISO 22196:2011, reducing bacterial growth on frequently-touched surfaces. The rounded-edge profile softens the appearance compared to sharp-edged plates and the included screw cap covers hide the fixing points once installed.

Frequently Asked

What does the neon indicator show?

The neon illuminates when the circuit is live, confirming that power is reaching the switch. It remains lit when the switch is in the 'on' position and extinguishes when turned off, or if the circuit is isolated at the consumer unit.

What back box depth is required?

A 47mm minimum back box depth is needed for safe installation. The 7mm plate projection means the total projection from the wall once fitted is approximately 10-12mm depending on cable routing.

Can this be used for a shower or a cooker?

Yes. The 45A rating covers both electric showers and electric cookers up to that load. Always verify the appliance's current draw matches the switch rating and ensure the circuit cable and protective device are correctly rated for the installation.

What are the anti-microbial properties?

The faceplate material incorporates anti-microbial additives tested to ISO 22196:2011, reducing bacterial growth on the surface. This is particularly useful in kitchens and bathrooms where switches are frequently touched with wet or food-handling hands.
