One way: one light, one place
A 1 gang one way switch turns one light on and off from one location. It is the everyday choice for bedrooms, bathrooms and most rooms. ÖKO offers it in both Core (2500 W, 10 A) and Luxe (4000 W, 16 A).
2 gang and 3 gang: several lights on one plate
A 2 gang or 3 gang one way switch set puts two or three switches on a single plate, each controlling its own light. Use them in living rooms, kitchens or any space with more than one lighting circuit, so you do not need several plates side by side.
Three way: one light from two places
A 1 gang three way switch set lets you control one light from two locations, such as both ends of a stairway or hallway. Both locations need a three way switch, so plan this at the wiring stage.
Dimmer: set the mood
The light dimmer switch set sets the light level instead of only on and off. It is rated for up to 500 W at 10 A. Add up the lamps on the circuit and stay within that rating, and check the data sheet for the lamp types it suits.
