Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good value switch Does what you need it to do great value switch from screwfix which you can rely on
Date published: 2021-04-25
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Meets my needs well I needed number of aesthetically compatible switches (1 and 2 gang) and twin 13A sockets, one with USB charging facilities. The switches needed to fit a 16mm back box and all must have plastic caps to cover the screws. I could only meet this requirement, from the Screwfix range, with the British General products and chose the 800 series for aesthetic reasons. One aesthetic criticism of the range is that the sockets with USB have 'outboard' switches whilst those without have 'inboard' - I would have preferred sockets with matching switches, either both inboard or both outboard. Having received the items I find that they appear of good quality and ideal for my application. Terminal screws operate easily (not always the case!) and the switches are positive without being difficult to operate. I see no reason why there should be any problem with installation. These items are not yet installed so I give benefit of doubt on performance and reliability - but these factors will not be known for quite a long time anyway!

Can it be used as an intermediate switch?

Can this be used as an intermediate switch?
Asked by: Dean1100
Hi Dean1100, Intermediate switches have very different and more complex internals than a standard 2-way light switch, so _no_ you cannot use a 2-way switch as an intermediate.
