Top 3 Customer Questions & Concerns
Why does this switch have 3 pins instead of 2? The third pin is specifically for the internal light. While two pins handle the actual switching of your device, the third pin connects to the Neutral line to allow the internal lamp to glow when the switch is in the "ON" position.
Does the Black version also light up? Typically, no. In this mini series, the Black rocker is usually non-illuminated, while the translucent Red rocker is designed to house the internal lamp for visual status monitoring.
Is this switch suitable for outdoor use? No, this is a standard indoor-rated component. To protect the internal electrical contacts and the lamp circuit from moisture or dust in outdoor or kitchen environments, it must be paired with a compatible waterproof silicone cover.
