On the job
Contacts close only while the button is held, then return automatically — no maintained switching, so it's the correct part for bell pushes, door-entry signalling, or momentary relay activation rather than lighting or power circuits. Because it's built for standard UK back boxes, it drops into existing pattress or flush-box installations without adapting the first fix.
The 2-way arrangement gives installers flexibility to wire it into circuits needing a temporary contact closure at more than one point in the run, which is useful where a control relay or secondary bell circuit sits downstream. Ivory finish suits domestic and light commercial entrances, reception points, or anywhere a neutral plate is specified alongside existing switchgear.
Note stock is currently low — factor lead time into multi-unit orders for a job spec calling for matched ivory switch plates throughout.
