Wall-mounted MACLEAN MCE712W 2-gang recessed touch changeover cross/stair light switch with color-change LED backlight, angular white

MACLEAN MCE712W is a 2-gang recessed touch changeover switch designed for cross/stair (intermediate) switching. The angular white wall switch uses touch-sensitive panels and a color-change LED backlight to indicate the current state of the circuit. It is intended for installation in standard recessed wall boxes and supports multi-way lighting control, making it compatible with staircases, corridors, living areas and smart home electrical schemes.

Advantages

The switch combines a low-profile recessed design with touch-sensitive operation for a clean, modern look and easy maintenance. The color-change LED backlight gives clear visual feedback about the switch position and improves visibility in low light. Its 2-gang changeover configuration offers flexible multi-location control of one or more lighting circuits, suitable for cross or intermediate switching arrangements. The angular white finish provides a neutral appearance that integrates with common interior styles.

Suitable for

• Corridors and staircases requiring intermediate (cross) switching
• Multi-way lighting installations in homes and apartments
• Living rooms and hallways where touch control and status indication are desired
• Smart home systems and retrofits that use standard recessed wall boxes

Key specifications

• Number of gangs: 2
• Switch type: changeover (intermediate / cross) touch switch
• Mounting: recessed into standard wall box
• Control method: capacitive touch panels
• Backlight: color-change LED for status indication
• Finish: angular white
• Application: multi-way lighting control (stair/corridor)

How to use

Install the switch into a compatible recessed wall box and connect according to the wiring diagram for cross/intermediate switching, ensuring power is isolated before starting work. After installation, operate each touch panel to change the circuit state; the LED backlight will change color to indicate whether the circuit is on or off. Use the switch as part of a multi-way circuit with other changeover switches installed at different locations when intermediate control is required.

Usage recommendations

Ensure installation is carried out by a qualified electrician and verify compatibility with existing multi-way wiring layouts. Use the angular white finish to match neutral interiors and rely on the LED backlight for night-time orientation. Avoid exposing the switch to moisture or excessive force on the touch panels.
