BG Electrical IP66 20A 1-Gang 2-Way Weatherproof Outdoor Switch With Neon

Outdoor switches are ideal for managing outdoor lighting or garden appliances. This robust 20A weatherproof single switch is IP66 rated, and has a LED indicator that can be wired to illuminate when on or off, whilst the 2 way switching allows a second switch to be added to the circuit to operate the same light or appliance from another location. The wide rocker makes this easy to use in all weather, and all cable entries in the 4 sides of the mounting box have removable blanking caps for versatility. What does IP66 mean IP Ingress Protection, relates to how resistant your product is against dust, water and debris. The first digit gives you an idea of the intrusion protection of the device so that means how well it stands up against dust and debris getting into it. The second digit is all about protection from water so if youre working in an environment that is frequently wet or raining then this number is definitely worth keeping an eye on. In this instance, the switch is completely dust-tight. Vacuum sealed and tested against a continuous airflow as well as offering protection against a direct, high-pressure jet from any angle.
