The Verdigris Range of Switches and Sockets from Forbes and Lomax

Do you remember the verdigris plate for the traditional style switches and sockets? It's been a while since we've seen those, since everyone wants to change them with something new, modern, more stylish. But the good people at Forbes and Lomax recently paid a visit to the museum at Mycenae, where they saw those bronze switches and sockets in a verdigris finish, which look so cool both in contemporary and traditional interiors. As a result, the verdigris finish is coming to the Forbes & Lomax switches and sockets! What is Verdigris? What does "verdigris" mean? Google helps us in this sense saying, "Verdigris is a bright bluish-green encrustation or patina formed on copper or brass by atmospheric oxidation, consisting of basic copper carbonate. Synonym with Patina." Via Wikipedia we find out even more that, Verdigris is the common name for a green pigment obtained through the application of acetic acid to copper plates or the natural patina formed when copper, brass or bronze is weathered and exposed to air or seawater over a period of time. It is usually a basic copper carbonate, but near the sea will be a basic copper chloride. If acetic acid is present at the time of weathering, it may consist of copper acetate. Forbes and Lomax Verdigris Range The Verdigris range has a rich aged bronze patina. The plates in Verdigris from Forbes and Lomax are hand finished to produce a slightly variable effect, making each plate unique. You can't really find two plates that look the same in a Verdigris finish - this adds to the distinctive look! Like all the other Forbes & Lomax products, these plates are available at Sparks Electrical in a large variety of switch and sockets combinations. We are currently working on this range to add it to our website, and you will be delighted to have them in your homes in a 3-4 working days from the date of the order. Pictures of Verdigris Forbes & Lomax Switches and Sockets You can see most of these pictures of the Forbes and Lomax Verdigris range via their website, but still, here are some of their most popular switches and sockets in this finish.

What is an Intermediate Switch?

A regular switch (rocker switch or dolly/toggle switch) is a 2-way switch; an intermediate switch has a special function. An intermediate switch is used in the middle of a 3 or more ways lighting circuit. For example, in a large room you can have two 2-way switches at either end, but if you want to add one in the middle, you need an intermediate switch. If there's a staircase with many floors, you need a 2-way switch at either ends and as many intermediate switches you need in the middle. An intermediate switch cannot work on its own; it requires 2-way switches at the end of the circuit.

What is a 2-way Switch?

A 2-way switch is a normal on/off switch for turning lights ON or OFF; a 2-way switch means there is or can be another switch controlling the same light. A 2-way switch can be used as a 1-way switch as needed. If you want to switch the lights from both sides of the room, or from upstairs and downstairs, what you need is a 2-way switch. If you need to switch the same lights from more than 2 places, intermediate switch/es are required. 

What is a Double Pole Switch?

A DP switch (double pole) is not a regular light switch; it is rated at 20A and is designed for the connection of refrigerators, water heaters, central heating boilers, and many other fixed appliances. It is a 20A rated ON/OFF switch for appliances, not for lights.
