BG Part M 6 Gang Light Switch Custom Grid with Back Box Included

BG Part M 6 Gang Light Switch Custom Grid with Back Box Included

The Part M range from BG is built for accessible installations, where every switch position needs to be seen and located easily. Grid gives you the freedom to configure the panel you need, and the Part M finish carries that through the whole building rather than one fitting at a time.

Please note that this switch will come in a grid format.

You will be sent the following parts all supplied by BG:

  • 2x 3 & 4 Gang Grid Yoke Frame — RFR34
  • 1x 6 & 8 Gang Flush Mounting Metal Back Box — MC503
  • 1x 6 Gang Cover Plate — RPM6
  • 6x 2 Way Single Pole Switch — R12

Part M front plates from BG are designed to aid the visually impaired. The graphite plate contrasts against a light-coloured wall and the white rockers contrast against the plate, giving clear visibility of every switch position. Part M approved, and the front plate matches the power products of the BG Part M range.

No visible plastic around switches. Colour matched screws for a sleek appearance. Captive backed out terminal screws for fast installation. Modern slim profile. 20A single pole. Alternative legend rocker covers available.

Your grid switch arrives as a kit: a front plate, a metal grid frame and the switch modules you chose. Modules clip into the frame, the frame screws to the back box, and the plate fits over the top.

Safety first: Only fit this yourself if you are competent to do electrical work. Work must meet BS 7671, and some jobs (for example new circuits, or work in bathrooms) are notifiable under Part P in England and Wales. If in doubt, use a registered electrician.

  1. Switch the circuit off at the consumer unit and confirm it is dead with a voltage tester before touching any wiring.
  2. Unscrew the old switch, take a photo of the wiring and label which cable goes to which terminal.
  3. Check the back box is deep enough: at least 25 mm for switches, 35 mm for dimmers and larger plates (see the spec sheets below).
  4. Clip each module into the grid frame from the front, in the order shown on this listing, with the 'TOP' marking facing up.
  5. Wire each module: one-way uses COM and L1, two-way uses COM, L1 and L2, and an intermediate takes both pairs of strapper wires. For dimmers and 20A modules, follow BG's leaflet below.
  6. Connect the earth (green/yellow) cable to the earth terminal on the grid frame or metal plate.
  7. Screw the grid frame to the back box, then fit the front plate. Screwless plates clip over the frame.
  8. Switch the power back on and test every switch and dimmer.
