Why Choose the CHINT ST1130 1 Gang Intermediate Switch?
The CHINT ST1130 is a practical 1 gang intermediate light switch designed for lighting circuits that require control from three or more locations. As part of the CHINT Shield Studio range, it provides a straightforward solution for domestic and commercial electrical installations where conventional 2 way switching alone does not provide enough control positions.
An intermediate switch is installed between two suitable 2 way switches, enabling the same lighting circuit to be operated from an additional position. Further intermediate switches can be incorporated where additional control points are required, making the ST1130 particularly useful for long corridors, staircases, landings and larger buildings with several entrances or access points.
The ST1130 features a single-gang wall-mounted format and the classic styling of the CHINT Shield Studio wiring accessory range. Its white plastic construction, slimline appearance and hidden plate fixings provide a clean finish for modern and traditional interiors.

Flexible Multi-Position Lighting Control
Intermediate switching is used when a single lighting circuit needs to be controlled from more than two positions. A typical arrangement uses a 2 way switch at each end of the circuit with one or more intermediate switches installed between them, providing convenient switching from additional locations.
The CHINT ST1130 is therefore particularly useful in larger properties and commercial environments where a light may need to be operated from several points. It can provide an additional control position on staircases, along long corridors or in rooms with multiple entrances while maintaining the coordinated appearance of the CHINT Shield Studio range.
Typical Applications
- Staircases with multiple floors or landings.
- Long hallways and corridors.
- Large rooms with several entrances.
