i've looked and the closest that comes to a douple pole 2 way switch is for outside use and those too don't have a centre off function. I don't think I can use a SP 2 WAY centre off button for this. Because as mentioned I need Light A to come on with one click (or switch) and then Light A +...

thats my problem. I cannot find a switch that has 6 terminals at the back. i.e. a DPDT with centre off. Even the MK switch (linked) and the Crabtree and GET 2way centre off switches all have only 3 terminals at the back Com, L1 and L2. I wouldn't have been asking this question if I had a 2...

But does your nightlight come on using the main switch of the bathroom? If possible please draw me a quick wiring diagram. Hoping that your nightlight is operated by Switch 1. But your main bathroom switch 2 also puts on the nightlight alongwith the rest of the other lights. This is exactly...

At the moment for the ensuite there is a TP isolator but that is above the door far from reach. Currently we have 2 switches each operates the light and fan separately and that works great. I just wanted to know if there was a way to have less button presses for normal usage because 90% of the...

What's the best way to wire this configuration. 1. Switch 1 lights up Light 1. 2. Switch 2 lights up both Light 1 and Light 2. I was hoping to use a single 2 way centre off rocker switch but I think that's not doable. Because with that I'll either light up Light 1 or Light 2. I need...
