Dual-Location Control (2 Gang 2 Way Functionality)
Engineered for ultimate convenience, the 2 Gang 2 Way configuration allows you to operate two separate lighting circuits independently from two different locations. This makes it the ideal lighting control solution for:
- Staircases & Hallways: Control landing lights from both the ground floor and upper levels.
- Master Bedrooms: Turn main bedroom lights on or off from the door entrance or directly beside the bed.
- Open-Plan Living & Dining Areas: Manage zone lighting from multiple room entryways.
Should your wiring configuration require standard 1-way operation, this 2-way switch functions seamlessly as a 1-way switch without modification.
Superior 16AX Electrical Rating for Modern LED Lighting
Equipped with a 16AX 250V AC 50/60Hz rating, the Schneider AvatarOn switch is specifically constructed to handle high inrush currents typical of modern LED bulbs, dimmable LED drivers, electronic ballasts, and fluorescent lighting. The "AX" inductive rating guarantees high endurance against arc discharges during switching, preventing internal contact welding and drastically extending the operational lifetime of your switch compared to standard 10A alternatives.
Versatile Installation & International Safety Standards
Designed to fit standard Malaysian wall back-boxes, the Schneider AvatarOn series supports both flush-mount and surface-mount installations. It is tested and certified to comply with strict Malaysian and international electrical standards, including MS IEC 60669-1, SS 227-1, BS EN 60669-1, and IEC 60669-1. Featuring an IP20 ingress protection rating, it offers reliable protection against solid objects, making it safe for indoor residential, hotel, and commercial environments.
