ABB Inora 2 Gang 2 Way 10AX Switch White BL106

The product is identified as the ABB Inora BL106 2 gang 2 way 10Amp switch in white, with FEPY SKU 42214-NOS and EAN 6941593436262. Checking the model, gang configuration, switching type, current rating, colour and dimensions helps prevent ordering an incompatible wiring accessory.

Isolate the electrical circuit before maintenance. Clean the external surface with a soft, dry or lightly damp cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents and direct water spray. If a rocker becomes loose, discoloured, unusually warm, noisy or intermittent, stop using the circuit and have the switch inspected by a qualified electrician.

After installation, a qualified electrician should check terminal tightness, conductor identification, secure mounting and correct operation of both gangs from every control location. Required electrical tests should be completed in accordance with applicable UAE regulations and project procedures before the circuit is energised and handed over.

It can replace a compatible 2 gang switch when the existing circuit arrangement, conductors, wall box and load ratings are suitable. A 2-way circuit normally requires additional traveller conductors, so an existing 1-way installation cannot always be converted to 2-way control without rewiring. The electrician should inspect and test the circuit before replacement.

Contractors should verify the approved wiring-accessory schedule, 10A rating, 2 gang 2 way configuration, wall-box compatibility, dimensions, terminal capacity, circuit load and required quantity. They should also confirm that matching accessories from the selected ABB Inora range are specified so that switch plates and finishes remain consistent throughout the project.

No ingress-protection or weatherproof rating is provided in the listed product information. It should therefore not be assumed suitable for exposed outdoor areas, wet zones or locations subject to water, dust or condensation. For bathrooms, kitchens and exterior applications, use installation zones and accessories with the appropriate IP rating as required by local regulations.

Do not select the switch solely on its 10A rating for fans, socket outlets or appliances. Motor, inductive and high-inrush loads can require a specifically rated switch, isolator, contactor or fused connection unit. The connected equipment’s load type, starting current and manufacturer instructions must be checked by a qualified electrician.

It may be used for compatible LED lighting circuits, subject to the LED driver’s switching characteristics and ABB’s specified load limits. LED drivers can produce high inrush current even when their normal operating current is low, so the total wattage alone should not be used to determine compatibility. Consult an electrician or ABB technical data for larger groups of LED fittings.

The BL106 has a stated current rating of 10A, but supply-voltage and load compatibility must be confirmed from the product marking, packaging or ABB technical documentation before connection. The electrician must also ensure that the circuit protection, conductors, earthing arrangements and connected load comply with applicable UAE requirements.

Yes. Fixed electrical accessories should be installed, tested and commissioned by a qualified electrician. The installer should follow the applicable UAE electrical regulations, local authority requirements and approved project drawings, including requirements issued by the relevant authority or utility in the emirate.

For each circuit, a typical 2-way arrangement uses the common terminal and two traveller terminals, connected to a second compatible 2-way switch. Because terminal identification and project wiring can vary, the installer must follow the diagram supplied with the product and ABB instructions. Installation should be completed only after isolating and verifying the circuit as de-energised.

This switch is suitable for lighting-control layouts in UAE villas, apartments, offices, retail units and other indoor spaces. Typical applications include corridors, staircases, master bedrooms, living rooms and rooms with two access points. Its white finish coordinates well with many commonly used interior wall colours and fit-out styles.

Yes. Its two gangs are designed to switch two separate lighting circuits independently, provided they are wired correctly. For example, one rocker can control the main ceiling lights while the other controls wall, accent or secondary lighting.

The ABB Inora BL106 is a two‑gang wall switch that lets you control two separate lighting circuits from a single plate. Each gang can operate as a 1‑way or a 2‑way switch, giving you flexible wiring for different light setups. It is rated for up to 10A and is finished in white for a modern look.
