FAQs
What makes Sunbright electrical switches more durable than standard switches?
Sunbright switches are built with high-grade, flame-retardant polycarbonate housings, silver-alloy contact points, and brass terminals. These materials resist heat, arcing, and corrosion, allowing the switches to withstand over 100,000 mechanical operations—far exceeding the industry average of 40,000–50,000 cycles.
Are Sunbright switches suitable for outdoor or humid environments?
Yes. Our long-lasting durability line is IP55-rated for dust and water resistance. A UV-stabilized enclosure prevents discoloration and cracking under direct sunlight, while internal gaskets keep moisture away from the live parts, making the switches ideal for patios, garages, kitchens, and bathrooms.
What safety certifications do Sunbright switches carry?
All Sunbright durability switches are tested and certified to IEC 60669-1 standards, CE-marked for European compliance, and RoHS-compliant for hazardous-substance restrictions. Models for North America also meet UL 20 requirements, ensuring safe operation under rated loads and temperatures.
Can I install Sunbright switches in place of my existing ones without rewiring?
Usually, yes. Sunbright switches are designed with universal back-boxes and standard 83 mm mounting centers, matching most existing wiring setups. If your previous switch used a common live feed or a different gang configuration, simply follow the wiring diagram provided in the box or consult a qualified electrician.
Do the switches come with a warranty, and what does it cover?
Every Sunbright durability switch is backed by a 12-year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects, premature wear, and color fading. If a switch fails under normal usage conditions, we will repair or replace it free of charge. Accidental damage or improper installation is not covered.
How can I maintain or clean the switches without affecting their lifespan?
Wipe the switch plate with a soft, damp microfiber cloth; avoid abrasive pads or solvents. For stubborn stains, use a mild, pH-neutral soap solution, then dry thoroughly. Do not spray cleaners directly on the switch—apply them to the cloth first. Periodic dusting of ventilation slots also helps prevent overheating.
