Frequently Asked Questions
-
What backbox depth required for the CMA2023 switch installation?
Minimum 25mm backbox depth required. Standard 35mm backboxes provide optimal cable management space for 3x 2.5mm² conductors.
-
Can this 20A switch control immersion heaters and storage heaters?
Yes, 20A resistive load rating suitable for immersion heaters up to 4.8kW and storage heating circuits requiring double pole isolation.
-
Why does the LED affect insulation testing procedures?
Red LED indicator circuit prevents 500V insulation testing. Use 250V testing or isolate LED circuit during electrical installation testing procedures.
-
What terminal torque specification ensures secure electrical connections?
1.8Nm torque specification for 5mm screw terminals. Use calibrated torque screwdriver to prevent over-tightening damage to brass terminals.
-
Does this switch meet Part P Building Regulations requirements?
Yes, BS EN 60669-1 compliance meets Part P requirements. CE/UKCA marking confirms conformity with UK electrical safety regulations.
