Two rockers on one standard single plate: the BG Nexus 842-01 two gang, two way switch controls two separate lighting circuits from one position. Common pairings are a main light and wall lights, or a kitchen ceiling light and under cabinet lighting. Each gang can also work in a two way circuit, for example a landing light shared with the hallway below.

Despite having two switches, it fits a single 16mm deep back box at 60.3mm centres, so it can replace a single switch without enlarging the box. Rated 20A 16AX with no derating for fluorescent loads. Three and four gang versions extend the BG Nexus moulded range.
