Lloyd90 Posted March 12, 2016 Report Share Posted March 12, 2016 What's the purpose of that ? Turning the power off to the appliances when not in use ? Can't think of many times you'd ever use it tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rupert Posted March 12, 2016 Report Share Posted March 12, 2016 it may be possible to make one up using a 3 gang face plate and grid switches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amateur Posted March 12, 2016 Report Share Posted March 12, 2016 (edited) Looks good now just need to figure the switches The site that I linked does the whole kit, but I would be tempted to buy the face-plate only to see if it will fit your existing switch, If so, then it's just a face-plate changeover. If not then buy the rest Edited March 12, 2016 by amateur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDAV Posted March 12, 2016 Report Share Posted March 12, 2016 Take it apart and get the part number of the faceplate then google it and get the stainless one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoot and be safe Posted March 12, 2016 Report Share Posted March 12, 2016 (edited) Isolation part off part p regsDon't they have to have a fuse now, they did 6 years ago when I had my place rewired. Switch fuse spurs for fridge, dish washer and washing machine. Fridge now just on 3 pin plug and in a totally different place in the kitchen, the TGL'S wouldn't fit where I planed it to go, that switch now powers the under unit lights Edited March 12, 2016 by shoot and be safe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proud dad Posted March 12, 2016 Report Share Posted March 12, 2016 They are just double pole switches on a grid system. The problem you may have is getting a cover plate that matches the sockets you want.They are there just for local isolation, normally when socket outlets are positioned behind washing machines etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
