Is there a manufacturer that produces a 2 gang switch that consists of a rocker and a dimmer or will the only option be grids? Needs to fit a 1 gang ko
Replacing some old Tenby switches. The upstairs landing and hall are 2 way 2 gang with 6 terminals. The switch has the old thin switches with arched top and they aren't labelled on the back. It looks like COM L1 L2 on each side. Anyone have much experience with this type of switch?

Recently opened a 2 gang switch on a landing. Had knocked out the breaker for the lights on the landing. Waved my volt stick in there and the other gang was still live as it supplied the next stairs up off a different circuit. Is this acceptable in the regs ? It seems to be a bit dangerous...
