Onesto 16A 2 Way Module Only

• A high-performance switch mechanism and the core component for creating custom multi-way lighting controls within the Onesto Oracle modular system.
• This is a module only; it is the functional internal part of a switch and is not a complete, standalone product.
• Specifically designed to provide 2-way switching functionality, allowing a single light or circuit to be controlled from two separate locations.
• Empowers electricians to build bespoke switch assemblies that maintain the flawless, high-end aesthetic of the Oracle range.
• Engineered with a robust 16A rating, making it suitable for all modern lighting loads, including high-density LED installations.
• Requires an Onesto Oracle Grid Plate (sold separately) for housing and an Onesto Oracle Surround (sold separately) for a finished appearance.
• Available in both White and Black Graphite to perfectly match the corresponding grid plates.

Features

• Switch Functionality: Provides a 2-Way switching action, essential for multi-point light control.
• Modular Design: A core component of the Oracle modular system, designed to clip securely into an Oracle grid plate.
• High Current Rating: Features a robust 16A, 250V AC mechanism capable of handling substantial lighting loads with ease.
• Durable Construction: Built with a high-quality, self-extinguishing polycarbonate body and reliable electrical contacts for a long service life.
• Core Colour Options: Available in White or Black Graphite to match the colour of the chosen grid plate.
• Compact Form Factor: Standard "S-size" module designed for a perfect, rattle-free fit within the Oracle yokes.
• Certified and Compliant: Manufactured to meet the stringent safety and performance requirements of SANS 60669-1.
• Assured Reliability: Backed by a comprehensive 5-year manufacturer warranty.

Benefits

• Enables Complex Lighting Control: Provides the essential functionality for convenient multi-way switching in hallways, staircases, and large rooms, a feature not possible with standard 1-way switches.
• Uncompromised Design Consistency: Allows you to create complex switching circuits that perfectly match the sophisticated look of the standard Oracle switches and sockets, ensuring a cohesive interior.
• Ultimate Flexibility: Empowers professionals to build the exact switching solution required for any circuit design, no matter how complex.
• Professional-Grade Performance: Engineered for reliability, this module provides crisp, dependable switching action designed for the rigours of daily use.
• Efficient Repairs and Upgrades: If a switch ever fails, you only need to replace this cost-effective module, not the entire switch plate and surround assembly.
• Simplified Inventory for Professionals: Allows contractors to stock a single module type to create 2-way switches in various plate configurations, reducing the need to carry multiple complete units.

In-Depth Technical Specifications

The Onesto 16A 2 Way Module Only is the functional heart of a custom Oracle switch. The following table details its complete technical specifications.

Ideal Use

This module is exclusively intended for professionals and knowledgeable users creating custom switch assemblies.

• Staircase Lighting: The primary application, used with another 2-way switch to control a light from both the top and bottom of a flight of stairs.
• Long Hallways & Corridors: Allows a light to be switched on at one end of a hall and off at the other.
• Large Rooms with Multiple Entrances: Enables control of the main room lighting from each entry point.
• Open-Plan Living Spaces: Provides convenient control over a lighting zone from different areas within the space.
• Master Bedrooms: Used for controlling the main overhead light from both the door and a switch by the bedside.

Tips

To ensure correct purchasing and safe installation, it is critical to understand the nature of this product.

• CRITICAL - THIS IS NOT A COMPLETE SWITCH: You are purchasing only the internal switch mechanism. To create a functional and finished product, you MUST also purchase an Onesto Oracle Grid Plate and an Onesto Oracle Surround separately.
• Understand 2-Way Switching: A 2-Way circuit requires two of these switches (or one complete 2-way switch and one modular one) connected by specific "traveller" wires. This allows either switch to change the state of the light. This wiring must be done by an electrician.
• Example Assembly (1 Lever 2-Way Switch): To build one complete switch you will need:
  1. This Module (ONM002 or ONM002BK)
  2. An Onesto 1 Lever Grid Plate (ON2011Y or ON2011YBK)
  3. An Onesto 4x2 Decorative Surround (e.g., ON2000S-P)
• Professional Installation is Mandatory: The wiring of a 2-way circuit is more complex than a standard switch and must be performed by a qualified and certified electrician in compliance with SANS 10142-1.
• Exclusive Compatibility: This module is designed to fit ONLY in Onesto Oracle grid plates. It will not fit in other Onesto ranges (like Matrix or Trinity) or in products from other brands.
