Description

The Click Scolmore MCP010 10AX 1 Gang 1 Way Plate Switch is a durable surface-mounted light switch from the Metal Clad Pro range. Finished in dusty grey, it combines the strength of a metal clad electrical accessory with a clean, contemporary appearance suitable for demanding domestic, commercial and industrial installations.

Designed for standard one-way lighting control, the MCP010 allows one lighting circuit to be switched on and off from a single location. It is a practical choice for workshops, garages, warehouses, utility rooms, offices, plant rooms, storage areas and other indoor environments where a robust metal light switch is preferred over a conventional plastic accessory.

The MCP010 has a 10AX rating at 250V AC and is suitable for inductive lighting loads. The AX rating makes it suitable for lighting circuits where switching can create a higher initial electrical load, including many fluorescent and LED lighting applications.

Both the front plate and matching surface box feature an electrophoretically coated finish, helping provide a durable and consistent appearance. The curved Metal Clad Pro profile creates a neater, more modern alternative to traditional square-edged metal clad switches.

A matching 40mm-deep back box is included, allowing the switch to be surface mounted without purchasing a separate enclosure. This makes the MCP010 a convenient complete solution for electricians, electrical contractors, maintenance teams and commercial installers.

The switch is fitted with an interchangeable Click MiniGrid module. The modular construction allows compatible switch modules to be replaced or changed more easily, providing additional flexibility when adapting an electrical installation.

Measuring 88mm wide, 88mm high and 48mm deep, the MCP010 has standard 60.3mm fixing centres. Its terminals accept up to four 1.5mm² conductors or two 2.5mm² conductors, providing practical wiring capacity for common lighting circuit installations.

With an IP20 ingress protection rating, the MCP010 is designed for indoor use in dry environments. Its operating temperature range of -5°C to +40°C makes it suitable for a broad range of normal indoor applications.

The Click Scolmore MCP010 is an excellent choice for customers searching for a grey metal clad light switch, surface-mounted 1-gang switch, 10AX commercial light switch, industrial lighting switch or durable workshop electrical accessory. It combines dependable switching, modular flexibility and professional metal construction in one complete product.
