3 Gang Dolly/Momentary Switch Invisible Plate with Stainless Steel: 2 x Momentary Switch and 1 x 2 way 20A Dolly

This is the Forbes and Lomax 3GT2BELL/S, a three gang composed of 2 momentary switches and 1 two way 20A dolly switch invisible plate with stainless steel button/switch, manufactured by Forbes and Lomax.

All momentary switches (contact-closure switches) require an in-line dimming pack to enable them to work as a dimmer, or a relay pack to have an ON/OFF function. The button dimmer controller allows dimming from more than one location, and it can be used to control home automation systems.

The Button Dimmer Controller from Forbes & Lomax is a push-to-make momentary action switch that controls an In-Line Dimmer Pack. The system allows dimming of a lighting circuit from more than one position.

Please note: The button dimmer / momentary switch will only work in conjunction with an inline dimmer (see the required items). The way it works is: one in-line dimmer (impulse dimmer) per button dimmer. For 50-1000W 4A dimming you can order the ID0401 and for LED dimming you can use ID0101LE.
