Electrical switch Kontakt-Simon DW6/2.01/44, plastic housing, gold, IP20/IP44, 250 V AC, 10 A, 75×41 mm

Kontakt-Simon DW6/2.01/44 is a compact electrical wall switch in a plastic housing with a gold finish. Designed for standard electrical installations, the switch is rated for 250 V AC and a nominal current of 10 A. It provides basic environmental protection with IP20 in general indoor use and IP44 where splash protection is required. The device’s small footprint (approximately 75 × 41 mm) and lightweight construction make it suitable for residential rooms and light commercial spaces where a discreet metallic appearance is preferred.

Advantages

The switch combines a low-profile form factor with a gold-colored plastic cover that resists everyday wear while keeping installation weight minimal. Electrical ratings of 250 V AC and 10 A suit typical lighting and low-power circuits. Dual protection ratings allow use in dry interior locations and in areas subject to occasional splashes when installed in appropriate mounting conditions. Straightforward mechanical operation and standard dimensions simplify replacement and retrofit into existing switch boxes.

Suitable for

• Standard residential lighting circuits and room switches
• Bathrooms or kitchens with appropriate IP44 mounting for splash protection
• Corridors, utility rooms and light commercial interiors
• Retrofit projects where a compact switch with gold finish is required

How to use

Install the switch according to local electrical codes and safety standards. Before installation, disconnect the power supply at the circuit breaker. Mount the device into a compatible single-gang or flush mounting box ensuring correct orientation and secure wiring connections to the terminals. Restore power and verify correct operation by actuating the switch. For locations requiring IP44 protection, ensure that the switch is installed with compatible seals or mounting accessories and that surrounding fittings provide the necessary splash protection.

Usage recommendations

Use the switch only within its rated electrical limits (250 V AC, 10 A). For wet or heavily exposed outdoor locations, select devices with a higher ingress protection rating. Periodically inspect the mounting and connections for signs of wear, and follow local safety regulations when performing maintenance or replacements.
