The gunmetal flat plate finish sits 2.5mm proud of the wall once installed, giving an ultra-low profile that reduces projection compared to standard depth switches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for kitchens where a cooker control unit is required by building regulations, the switch isolates both live and neutral lines when turned off, preventing accidental operation during cleaning or maintenance. The 45A rating handles single cookers, combined oven and hob circuits, and can control multiple cooking appliances in the same room provided the combined load does not exceed 45A at 230V.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe premium-grade steel plate is finished in gunmetal, a dark grey-brown metallic tone that sits between graphite and bronze. The flat plate includes a built-in gasket to seal against the wall surface, and the 1-gang footprint measures 87.5 x 87.5mm. The switch requires a minimum 35mm back box depth for installation and carries IP20 rating for standard indoor dry locations. The neon indicator uses minimal power and operates on the same 230V circuit as the load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\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.

A typical single oven draws 13-16A, a hob 16-32A depending on size.
