Country of manufacture?

Asked by: Gmc600
Hi Gmc600, Realistically the important aspect of any product is the conditions it is manufactured under and its compliance to the relevant local standard(s). Our manufacturing facility is ISO accredited and runs under a full UK quality process with compliance to all relevant standards, but it is not based in the UK itself due to raw material costs being too high over here, so country of origin is P.R.C.

Is this product compatible with an older pull switch that does not have 2 screws on the front but requires you to twist the top off instead also there are three wires 1 earth and two red wires, is this item compatible?

Asked by: Solanki
Hi Solanki, The fixing method of a light switch should have no relevance to its operation or how it is connected, so from the description of your wiring you simply need to make use of the Earth terminal on the base plus the COM and L1 terminals on the actual switch working.

Is this switch a quiet soft pull switch?

Asked by: TedKoe
Hi TedKoe, We cannot claim that this switch is specifically quiet or `soft pull', but we do not believe it to be any more noisy than any other manufacturer's equivalent.
