The E3 Pure White is a hard-working but stylish replacement for your basic plastic switches. It features wide rockers, an easy-to-clean glossy surface and the same gentle rounded contours of the rest of the E3 range.

The rotary dimmer units, made by ION in the Netherlands, use the “Trailing Edge” dimming principle and are available in load ratings of 200W or 350W.

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.

What’s in the box?

What does an electrician call this?

Where is this used in the home?

A 1-gang 2-way dimmer is commonly used for controlling a single light source from one or two places.

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.

The concept

This purists’ version of the E3 Soft Touch range combines gentle contours with a minimalist square rocker and clean white glossy finish.
