The switch isolates both live and neutral lines when turned off, providing full electrical isolation for safe maintenance or cleaning of connected cooking appliances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for residential kitchens and utility areas where cookers, ovens or electric hobs need a dedicated control point, the switch fits a 2-gang mounting box (147.5mm x 87.5mm aperture) and requires a minimum 47mm back box depth. The ultra-low profile design projects just 2.5mm from the wall once installed, with a built-in gasket that provides an IP20 seal against dust ingress behind the faceplate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gunmetal finish is a dark grey metallic tone that sits between brushed steel and matt black, pairing well with stainless steel appliances, dark worktops and contemporary kitchen schemes. The premium-grade steel construction and 25-year warranty indicate commercial-grade durability, making this switch suitable for high-use domestic kitchens and hospitality installations where cooker controls are operated multiple times daily.\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.
