Acar pull cord switch white 2-way WS-1P for lighting circuits

Acar pull cord switch white 2-way WS-1P for lighting circuits is a cord-operated electrical switch designed to control lighting where wall-mounted switches are impractical. The unit features a white finish and a 2-way mechanism that allows it to be used as part of two-point switching circuits, enabling control of a light from two separate locations. It is intended for inline installation with existing fixture wiring and is commonly fitted to ceiling-mounted fittings or junction boxes where a hanging cord provides convenient access.

Advantages

The Acar pull cord switch provides a straightforward mechanical operation with a clear on/off action, offering reliable manual control for interior lighting. Its compact white housing integrates discreetly with most ceilings and fixtures. The 2-way design adds flexibility for multi-point control without complex rewiring, and the pull cord allows operation in locations where a conventional wall switch is not accessible.

Suitable for

• Ceiling-mounted light fittings in rooms with limited wall access
• Bathrooms and utility rooms where a pull cord is preferred for safety and convenience
• Closets, attics and basements where a ceiling pull is more practical than a wall switch
• Two-way lighting circuits that require control from two different points

Key specifications

• Color: white
• Switch type: pull cord, mechanical actuation
• Contact configuration: 2-way (suitable for two-point switching)
• Mounting: inline with fixture wiring / ceiling installation
• Typical applications: indoor lighting circuits (ceiling fixtures, bathroom lights, utility areas)

How to use

Install the pull cord switch in-line with the existing lighting circuit according to local electrical regulations and safety standards. Disconnect power before installation, connect the live and switched conductors to the switch terminals, and secure the unit within the ceiling box or fixture mount. After installation, restore power and operate the light by pulling the cord to toggle between on and off. If used in a two-way circuit, wire the common and two-way terminals as required for multi-point switching and verify correct operation from both control points.

Usage recommendations

For safe installation and reliable operation, use appropriate insulated wiring and ensure all connections are tightened to manufacturer torque values or standard practice. If unsure about wiring a two-way circuit, consult a qualified electrician. Avoid exposing the switch to direct water jets; when used in bathrooms, follow applicable ingress protection and local electrical codes.
