•  Replaces any normal switch for X-10 control of lighting (including fluorescent lighting) or appliance such as heater/fans, etc. rated up to 10A.
•  Works with any X10 controller.
•  Also works manually.
  

The wall appliance switch is the same size and fits in the same way as a standard UK single gang appliance switch. It is designed to replace existing appliance switches and to be able to offer control over those appliances through our signalling system (for instance, where a washing machine has another switch located above the worktop). In addition, because our wall dimmer switch cannot control fluorescent lights, the wall appliance switch is a suitable command tool.

It can control appliances of up to 10 amps and is specifically designed to be a double pole single throw switch, that is, it switches both the live and the neutral. (In some household installations, appliance switches, and almost all light switches, only switch the live or the neutral but not both and so our switch cannot be used under those circumstances - if in doubt you should consult an electrician.) More than one appliance may be connected to a wall appliance switch but, of course, they would not be able to be controlled independently. The wall appliance switch receives signals via the electricity supply whether the switch itself is on or off and has a light to indicate whether it is on or off. However, if the appliance has a switch then it must be in the 'on' position for our wall appliance switch to be able to control it. As with all of our equipment, the wall appliance switch can be simply programmed with an address so that when signals are sent to it, it can react.

Once the switch is fitted, the address can be changed without having to remove the switch. Our address system works with a house code and a unit code and can be changed easily at any time. The house code is designed for setting up separate circuits within a home whilst the unit code gives an address to an item within that circuit. So, for example, an address might be A3 or A4. There are 16 house circuits (A - P) and 16 unit addresses (1-16).
