Advanced 2-Way Multi-Location Control
Equipped with 4 separate rocker switches, the NUX34_2_JB allows you to independently manage four distinct lighting zones from a single wall point. Furthermore, its 2-way functional circuit enables two-way switching—allowing you to turn lights on or off from two different physical locations (e.g., top and bottom of staircases, entryways, or bedside switches).
Industrial-Grade Durability & Electrical Safety
Built strictly to international IEC 60669-1 standards and certified for safety, the switch features a robust electromechanical mechanism rated for 16AX standard and inductive loads at 250V AC (50/60Hz). It handles LED lighting, fluorescent bulbs, and heavy residential inductive loads without arcing or overheating. Rated IP20, it ensures standard ingress protection against solid objects in dry indoor environments.

Q1: Can I use a 2-way switch as a normal 1-way switch?
A: Yes. Electricians can easily wire a 2-way switch as a standard 1-way switch by utilizing only the Common (COM) and L1 terminals, making it a versatile choice for any room setup.
Q2: What does 16AX mean on the Schneider UnicaX switch?
A: 16AX indicates the switch's current rating for inductive loads (such as fluorescent lamps, LED drivers, and fans). The "X" rating means it is specifically tested to handle the high electrical inrush currents produced by modern LED lighting without sticking or burning out.
Q3: Is the Schneider UnicaX NUX34_2_JB compatible with Malaysian standard backboxes?
A: Yes. Schneider UnicaX products designed for the Malaysian market are compatible with standard British/Malaysian flush-mount wall backboxes (3x3 or double gang boxes depending on frame configuration). Always consult a certified electrician for installation.
Q4: Can a 4-Gang switch control different types of lights?
A: Yes. Each of the 4 rockers on the NUX34_2_JB switch operates an independent circuit. You can control downlights on Gang 1, track lights on Gang 2, pendant lights on Gang 3, and a ceiling fan or ambient strip light on Gang 4.
Q5: Does the Schneider UnicaX NUX34_2_JB require a neutral wire?
A: No. As a standard electromechanical switch, it operates directly on live-line switching and does not require a neutral wire at the switch wall box.
Q6: What does IP20 rating mean for this switch?
A: An IP20 rating means the switch is protected against solid foreign objects larger than 12.5mm (such as fingers). It is designed strictly for dry indoor applications like living rooms, bedrooms, and commercial offices.
Q7: Is Schneider UnicaX SIRIM certified for use in Malaysia?
A: Yes. Schneider Electric products distributed in Malaysia comply with international IEC 60669-1 standards and SIRIM requirements for low-voltage domestic installation safety.
