Full Description:
Premium Modern Design Meets Cutting-Edge Engineering
The Schneider AvatarOn Series sets a new benchmark in modern interior architecture. Featuring a sleek, borderless design with a brush-textured Gold Hairline finish, this 2 Gang 2 Way switch serves as a stylish wall accent for modern luxury homes, offices, retail boutiques, and hospitality venues. The slim profile and tactile snap-on cover mechanism ensure a seamless blend with high-end wallpaper, contemporary plaster, or natural wood wall finishes.Versatile 2 Gang 2 Way Functionality
Designed for maximum convenience, a 2 Gang 2 Way switch allows independent dual-circuit control from two different physical locations.- Staircase Lighting: Turn lights on at the ground floor and off from the first floor.
- Master Bedrooms: Control room lights both at the main doorway entrance and right beside the bed.
- Large Living Rooms & Hallways: Manage separate lighting zones (e.g., main ambient downlights and accent cove lights) from opposite ends of a room.
Heavy-Duty 16AX Electrical Rating
Unlike standard 10A light switches that suffer from premature contact wear due to initial inrush currents, the Schneider AvatarOn E8332L2_GH_G11 is engineered with a robust 16AX 250V AC rating. The "AX" rating indicates high inductive load compatibility, making it specifically designed to handle modern energy-efficient LED drivers, fluorescent ballast loads, smart lighting transformers, and heavy-duty ceiling fans without arc damage or sticking contacts over time.
Flexible & Hassle-Free Installation
Whether you are upgrading an existing property or working on a new building construction project in Malaysia, the Schneider AvatarOn range ensures effortless compatibility:
- Mounting Versatility: Supports standard flush-mount concealment inside wall backboxes or surface-mount installation using compatible extension boxes.
- IP20 Protection Rating: Safeguards internal live conductor terminals against solid particles larger than 12.5mm.
- Quick Terminal Wiring: Ergonomic terminal layout allows interior wire connections to be completed quickly and securely, cutting down electrician installation time.
Full Certification & Malaysian Safety Compliance
Electrical safety is uncompromised. The Schneider AvatarOn Gold Hairline 2 Gang 2 Way switch complies with both local Malaysian and international safety, quality, and manufacturing standards:
- MS IEC 60669-1 (Malaysian Standard for Switches for household and similar fixed electrical installations)
- SS 227-1 (Singapore Safety Mark Standard)
- BS EN 60669-1 (British / European Safety Standard)

Q1: What does "2 Gang 2 Way switch" mean?
A: "2 Gang" means the wall plate contains two separate rocker switches in one unit. "2 Way" means each of those two individual switches can be paired with another switch elsewhere to control two distinct light circuits from two different locations.
Q2: What is the main benefit of the 16AX rating on the Schneider AvatarOn switch?
A: A 16AX rating means the switch can safely handle continuous 16 Amp inductive loads and high inrush currents typical of modern LED lighting, fluorescent drivers, and ceiling fans. This prevents contact welding and significantly extends the switch's operating lifespan compared to standard 10A switches.
Q3: Is the Gold Hairline finish on Schneider AvatarOn durable?
A: Yes. Schneider Electric uses high-grade UV-stabilized polycarbonate materials with a treated brushed finish for the Gold Hairline series. It resists fading, fingerprints, scratches, and daily wear under normal indoor conditions.
Q4: Can I replace my existing standard wall switch with Schneider AvatarOn?
A: Yes. AvatarOn switches are designed to fit standard Malaysian recessed wall concealed backboxes or surface-mounted junction boxes.
Q5: What is the IP rating for the Schneider AvatarOn Gold switch?
A: The Schneider AvatarOn E8332L2_GH_G11 has an IP20 rating, which protects against solid objects over 12.5mm. It is designed strictly for dry indoor applications like living rooms, bedrooms, and corridors.
Q6: Can this switch be used for water heaters or air conditioners?
A: No. Lighting switches (16AX) are designed for lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. High-power appliances like water heaters or heavy air conditioners require dedicated 20A or 32A Double Pole switches.
Q7: Where can I buy original Schneider AvatarOn switches in Malaysia?
A: Original Schneider AvatarOn products can be purchased through authorized Schneider Electric distributors, hardware specialty outlets, and verified online stores on Shopee Malaysia and Lazada Malaysia. Always verify the official catalogue model number (E8332L2_GH_G11) to ensure authenticity.
