Tronic Standard 1 Gang Intermediate Switch, White Screwless

Our review

This is a single-gang intermediate switch from Tronic's standard range, finished in white with a screwless faceplate. In wiring terms, an intermediate switch sits between two two-way switches so a single light fitting can be controlled from three or more positions. That makes it the right part for a hallway, staircase or landing where you want a switch at each end and one in the middle, or for a large room with several entry points. It is not a replacement for a one-way switch, and it will not work as a two-way switch on its own, so confirm your wiring plan before ordering. The slim, smooth-edged design and shiny surface suit modern homes and offices, and the screwless front gives a cleaner look than a standard plate. Before buying, check the gang count matches the opening you have, confirm the finish suits the other switches nearby, and make sure your electrician is happy with the wiring arrangement. Compare it with other intermediate switches on faceplate material, colour and how the plate fixes to the wall.
