Technical Information - Dimmer Switch

• Standards: Conforms with IEC 669-2-1 or BSEN 60669-2-1
• All Forbes and Lomax rotary dimmer switches require British standard 35mm deep flush wall boxes (to be ordered separately).
• Plate dimensions: 1-2 gang 86mm x 86mm, 3-4 gang 146mm x 86mm, larger configurations 4-6 gang 146mm x 146mm. 

The Unlacquered Brass range has plates that are designed to mellow with age if left unpolished. This is particularly suitable to period buildings where a bright brass look would be less desirable.

Alternatively, the plates can easily be polished to give a shiny look should this be required. Although traditional in appearance, the variety of unlacquered brass products we have will meet all the demands of modern living.  

Note: this dimmer is not suitable for use with trailing edge transformers.
