Edwardian Dimmer Switch 1 Gang Polished Brass Unlacquered
- A single dimmer switch on an Edwardian style plate made from solid brass with a Polished Brass Unlacquered finish.The Edwardian plate is stylish and elegant being characterized by the fabulous double stepped edge. It is a quality, heavy cast plate that also has a practical advantage of being slightly larger than some other plate styles (whilst still fitting to a standard back box) so can be useful to cover up messy plastering around the plate edge.Unlacquered polished brass is a living finish that will mellow over time. To start with it is bright and shiny, but it will age and develop a rich dark patina that has lighter areas where it is handled. It can be left to age like this indefinitely or can be polished with a metal polish to restore to bright and shiny as new. Leaving the plates to age naturally is a popular choice in period and traditional settings as the characterfulness can be more in keeping. If you don't want to wait for the ageing to take place naturally in your home, consider our Hand Aged Brass finish instead.The high quality switch is made in the UK. It is available as a standard LED dimmer with push on and push off, or simply as a push on push off switch with no dimming.We recommend using a minimum 35mm depth backbox with this product to give a comfortable amount of space for the grid (the switch or socket mechanism) and wiring behind the plate.Dimensions:Height: 96mm; Width: 96mmFeatures of dimmer switches:LED Dimmer moduleOne-way and two-way switch for ON/OFF function.Minimum load down to 5W (1x LED bulb)Maximum load up to 100W (Max x10 LED lamps per circuit)User settings for minimum dim level and mode setting.Suitable for control of Dimmable LED lamps, Incandescent and Mains HalogenManually select dimmer mode (Leading or Trailing Edge)Thermostat Circuit ProtectionDerate Dimmer loads by 30% for 2, 3 & 4 gang load Further Technical Information: available here.
