E2 Classic White Dimmer

E2 Classic White Dimmer

From £60.00

The E2 Classic White is an iconic modern switch without any bells and whistles, but lots of timeless design appeal. Its well-proportioned geometric lines come in white gloss or a more subtle matt finish.

The dimmer units, made by ION Industries in the Netherlands, are “Trailing Edge” LED dimmers and have a very high compatibility rate with LED light sources from all major brands.

If you require a different dimmer version, such as a 1-10V controller or “satellite” dimmers, please get in touch.

Gira has a huge range of wiring products, functions and devices that can be combined with these frames. Contact us for information on other options if you can’t find what you’re looking for.

Installation

Because of the modular nature of European wiring accessories, installation is slightly different to fitting the encapsulated (moulded) switches and sockets common in the UK. Have a look at the step-by-step pictures below, or consult the more detailed Gira rocker switch installation instructions.

Does this cover a standard british back box?
This product covers a standard metal knockout box, but it doesn't cover the edges of plastic "dry-lining" boxes. If you can't fit a metal flush box, we recommend using "flat plate" drywall boxes or European round boxes.


How deep does the back box need to be?
This needs a slightly deeper box, at least 35mm.
