Pull Switch Recommendations

[Mattenstein]

Hi All

Can anyone recommend a brand of 10A bathroom light pull switches?
Personally I'd prefer one where the terminals are in the part you affix to the ceiling and then the surface screws just screw on a cover, bit less fiddly but feel free to tell me if they tend to be less reliable!

My current one I think is a Crabtree one given practically everything else since the rewire is Crabtree but I haven't had a look yet, it may be on its way out hence the possible need to change it.

What brand am I best going with? Cheers.

Hi,

I have found Hager to supply reliable well constructed pull cord isolator switches for shower extractor fans, and personally would buy the ceiling light pull cord switch from the Sollysta range. Their website is excellent and the technical department have always replied promptly to my queries.

Cheers

Crabtree are pretty good too. Can't remember the construction, but I think all the ones i have seen have the switch mechanism in the cover part with just an empty patress screwing on the ceiling.

Isn't that TOWR to what the OP wants it?

TOWR?

The opposite way round.

TOWR?

"The Other Way Round"?

Kind Regards, John
Too slow again!

I guess it’s too much to expect a helpful reply

I'm not sure at whom that is directed, but ...

... the OP expressed a preference for a switch which had 'the works' attached to the ceiling, whereas you mentioned the Crabtree, which you thought had the mechanism in the 'cover part' - hence "The Other Way Round" in relation to the OP's preferred arrangement.

Kind Regards, John

It was for SS. as I said in my post. I do not know of a pull switch configured the way he would like it. Do you?

There's at least one on the shelves of my cellar, although I'm not sure how 'compliant' it is, since the cover can be unscrewed 'without the use of a tool' ....

Kind Regards, John
