Available in everything from Gold, Antique Brass and Bronze to Black, Chrome and more characterful artisan finishes, they can coordinate with the electrical fittings already used throughout your kitchen or interior.
A 20 amp double pole switch simultaneously switches both the live and neutral connections, providing isolation for suitable fixed electrical appliances and circuits where this type of control is required.
Your electrician can confirm whether a 20A double pole switch is appropriate for your particular installation and where it should be positioned.
Functional switches are often positioned alongside sockets, light switches and other controls, so carrying the same finish across them helps the wall feel much more considered.
Coordinate your double pole isolator switch with matching double sockets, USB-C sockets, Smart sockets, dimmers and light switches from the wider Dowsing & Reynolds collection.
For kitchen projects, explore our Kitchen Switches & Sockets range to bring cooker switches, fused spurs and other specialist electrical fittings into the same scheme.
The finish can either help a double pole switch blend into its surroundings or turn it into a deliberate piece of hardware.
Black provides strong architectural definition, while White and Whipped Cream offer quieter options for lighter walls. Gold introduces refined metallic warmth, Antique Brass feels softer and more heritage-inspired, and Bronze brings a deeper, more grounded metallic note.
Chrome offers a bright polished surface, while Silver is calmer and more understated. Artisan finishes such as Elemental Gold, Oxide Copper and Blackened Steel bring additional depth and character for interiors where the electrical details are intended to be seen.
Treat your double pole switch as part of the wider hardware palette rather than choosing it in isolation.
In a kitchen, coordinate it with nearby sockets, cabinet handles, taps or lighting. Elsewhere in the home, repeating the same plate finish across light switches and sockets creates a consistent thread from room to room.
For a quieter result, choose a finish that sits tonally against the wall. For more definition, use a contrasting metallic or Black plate to make the fitting part of the room’s design language.
Always ask a qualified electrician to confirm the correct switch rating, suitability and installation requirements for your intended use.
A double pole switch controls both the live and neutral connections simultaneously, allowing both to be isolated when the switch is turned off.
A 20A double pole switch can be used to control suitable fixed electrical appliances or circuits where double pole isolation is required. Your electrician should confirm whether it is appropriate for the intended installation.
A double pole switch can provide isolation by disconnecting both live and neutral connections. The exact type of isolating switch required will depend on the appliance, circuit and installation.
Yes. These switches are available in coordinating finishes designed to sit alongside the wider Dowsing & Reynolds range of sockets, Smart sockets, USB-C sockets, dimmers and light switches.
Choose a finish that relates to the other electrical plates or hardware in the room. Matching creates a more cohesive look, while a contrasting finish can make the switch a deliberate design detail.
