White Cooker Switch

[Chris Mikelis]

LAP do a WHITE cooker Switch. What I'm wanting to know is, does it comply? or does it have to be RED?

Thanks in advance for any input.

If they sell them then surely it complies? Just bang it on pal.

 

[telectrix]

if it didn't comply, they wouldn't make it.

If it's marked BS1363, it's good to go.

Use a Crabtree instead its better made and a couple of pounds more but then again just fit it and in 5 years I will get the callout to replace it and it will be crabtree

Click do a white one as well (with socket and without), think MK does as well.

Never could work out why so many are sold with gash orange or red switches

or why the original MK cooker control unit was the size that it is...

There is no reg to say that the switch itself must be red or orange. As long as its got what post 4 wrote then is ok.

also I think for 45-50A switches the contact desperation distance should be 6mm that's why there harder to switch.... Unsure correct figures tho if anyone wants to enlighten me.
