Hi,

Sotty if this is a repetative post but I could not find anything similar to my question anywhere on this forum.

I need a 2 Gang switch with 1 x Intermediate & 1x 2 Way. I have serached a lot on the internet but had no joy!

Can anyone advise where I can find a cheap plastic one, please?

Thanks
 
try the click modular swutches. you fit whatever switches you like into a 2 gang, 3 gang, 4 gang faceplate:

Click "Mode" i usually just buy intermediate switches and swap a module over and use 1g2w somewhere else. But you can buy the module separately as well.

The problem is I hae already fitted 2 additional switches at either end of the hallway and pulled the wires through the ceiling:sweat: and connected them all to the existing 2-Gang (2 x 2-Way) switch in the middle! and then relised that I needed an 'Intermediate switch' instead! so I need to replaces the existing switch with a 2Gang (Intermediate + 2Way) instead.
 
that's exactly what you can do with the click modular range. buy a 2 gang switch plus an intermediate module and swap out 1 of the switches for intermediate.
 


Buy those 2 and swap out the actual switch module, 1 small star screw, and then it just clicks out. Takes less than a minute.

Thank you, I ordered the switch and modules, hopefully it'll sort out the issue :thumbsup:

it's esy to swap out a module. 1 small screw at bottom secures the module (clips in at top) then wire up the 2 switches.
 
You can do this with Hager switches too, but irritatingly not a 3g single plate switch.
Just had to rewire a circuit at home to make the intermediate somewhere else to suit this. Which was annoying but my own bad planning to blame.

Just buy a 2-gang intermediate switch.
intermediate switches can be wired to provide 2-way operation.

Must be a southern thing given the suppliers you link to and at those prices I'm not surprised I have not seen them they are probably not a best seller up this way as there are a number of cheaper alternatives and I can't ever recall using contactum accessories

The smallest value coin of the pound sterling was 1/4d so therefore beer could never have been 1/3d as it would be impossible to pay for it
