The VGTEC 1 Gang 1 Way Switch (Regular Series) handles basic lighting circuits with a 16A, 250V capacity. This SWRE 011 model uses a polycarbonate panel over a metal frame for structural stability. High-conductivity copper parts maintain electrical flow across standard household wiring.
Key Features
- High-conductivity Copper Parts: 100% copper internals maintain electrical flow. Prevents heat buildup and resists corrosion from humidity.
- Fire Retardant Polycarbonate: PC body resists ignition under high temperatures. Prevents fire spread during electrical faults.
- Silver Alloy Contact: Contact points use silver alloy for conductivity. Stops carbon buildup over repeated switching.
- Metal Internal Frame: Zinc-coated steel frame supports the polycarbonate panel. Resists bending during installation in wall boxes.
- 16A Rated Current: 250V capacity handles heavy residential electrical loads. Runs lights or fans without circuit failure.
- 5-Year Warranty: Official brand coverage against manufacturing defects. Covers replacement if the internal mechanism fails.
