Help identifying switch

[RyanCheetham]

Good evening chaps. I am after some help with sourcing 2 replacement dimmer switches for a pub. I went to the pub in business hours today as it was the only time both the landlord and i could make it thus meaning i was unable to remove the cover plate and read the label of the switch. I will admit to being lazy and not looking past the first page of google. I was hoping some of you wiser chaps may just know by looking, cheers.

So what you are saying is give up hunting and just retrofit any sliding dimmer

No, the problem is the size of the opening on the front plate of the switch..... or replace all the switches and front plate??

I'll see if I have a photo of the ones I replaced!

crabtree
prob ok anyway some other prob

I had looked at a module available from TLC which came with a variety of cover plate adapters, including MK. I am leaning towards MK purely on the shape of the cover plate

The ones I changed looked like this:

and they were Crabtree and I fitted Crabtree 4430 Switches in place of the dimmers.

My client, a restuarant, needed a fix fast hence the standard on/off switches.

DO tell us what you did

The switch was indeed MK and i used a sliding dimmer from TLC to replace it, jobs a gooden
