How to use

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure safety and compliance with local electrical codes. The switch is designed to be mounted in a standard wall box. First, ensure the power supply is disconnected at the main circuit breaker. Connect the electrical wires to the designated screw terminals according to the wiring diagram for staircase circuits. Once the wires are securely fastened, mount the switch mechanism into the wall box and attach the cover plate. After installation, restore power and test the functionality of both switches.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your existing wall boxes are compatible with the 82 mm x 82 mm dimensions
• Ensure your electrical wiring supports a double staircase configuration
• Check that the total load of your lighting fixtures does not exceed 2200W
• Confirm that the installation environment is dry and indoor-only

Usage recommendations

For optimal safety and longevity, do not exceed the maximum power rating of 2200W. Regularly check that the screw terminals remain tight during routine maintenance to prevent overheating. Keep the switch clean by wiping it with a dry, soft cloth; avoid using abrasive chemicals or water.
