FAQ
Which appliances is the AvatarOn 20A Double Pole Switch suitable for?
It is suitable for high-power appliances under 20A, such as air conditioners, water heaters, dishwashers, and dryers. The double-pole design isolates both the live and neutral wires, ensuring safer maintenance or deactivation, in compliance with Hong Kong electrical regulations for high-power appliances.
What is the difference between a double-pole switch and a regular switch?
A standard single-pole switch only disconnects the live wire, while the neutral wire remains connected. A double-pole switch disconnects both the live and neutral wires, completely isolating the appliance from the power supply and eliminating the risk of electric shock during repairs, which is why double-pole switches are generally required for high-power appliances.
