Why Choose the CHINT SM1042 Metal Clad Light Switch?

The CHINT SM1042 is a robust 10 A 4 gang 2 way light switch designed for reliable control of multiple lighting circuits in demanding electrical installations. As part of the CHINT Shield SM Series, it features durable metal clad construction manufactured from premium grade steel, making it particularly suitable for workshops, garages, utility areas and commercial or industrial environments.

The SM1042 provides independent switching for four lighting circuits from a single accessory. Its 2 way switching configuration also enables suitable circuits to be controlled from two locations when correctly wired with compatible 2 way switches, providing a flexible solution for larger rooms, corridors and installations requiring multi-point lighting control.

With a rated current of 10 A and a 4 gang 2 way configuration, the SM1042 provides a practical solution where several lighting circuits need to be controlled from one position. Its premium grade steel construction provides the robust characteristics associated with the CHINT Shield SM Series of metal clad wiring accessories.

Reliable Four-Circuit Lighting Control

Metal clad wiring accessories are well suited to locations where a robust electrical accessory is preferable to a conventional moulded fitting. The CHINT SM1042 combines premium grade steel construction with four individual switches, allowing four lighting circuits to be controlled independently from one convenient accessory.

The 2 way configuration provides additional installation flexibility by allowing suitable lighting circuits to be operated from two positions when paired with compatible 2 way switches. This makes the SM1042 particularly useful in workshops, commercial premises, corridors, warehouses and other areas requiring robust multi-circuit lighting control.

Typical Applications

• Workshops and maintenance areas.
• Garages and outbuildings.
• Commercial premises.
• Industrial and light-industrial environments.
• Warehouses and storage areas.
• Utility rooms and plant areas.
• Installations requiring independent control of four lighting circuits.
