ABB Inora 2 Gang 2 Way 10AX Switch White BL106

Key specs: 2‑gang, 2‑way switch; 10A current rating; suitable for 230–240V AC systems; white finish; ABB Inora BL106 model; designed for standard wall mounting with a compatible 2‑gang back box.

2‑way means each gang can be wired so the same light can be controlled from two locations (for example, from an entry hallway and another switch). If you only need a single switch, you can wire it as a 1‑way circuit. Each gang has two traveller terminals for 2‑way wiring.

General steps: (1) switch off the circuit at the breaker. (2) remove the existing plate and mount the BL106 into a standard 2‑gang back box. (3) connect the live feed to the common terminal for each gang. (4) connect the traveller wires if you’re setting up 2‑way operation. (5) secure the switch, attach the faceplate, and restore power to test the circuits.

Ideal for homes and offices where two separate lighting circuits need independent control from one plate, or where two‑way switching is desired for lights in hallways, stairs, living rooms, or corridors.

Yes. The switch is built to standard electrical safety norms and carries markings common for electrical products (CE compliant in many markets) and RoHS compliance. Always ensure installation follows local wiring regulations and is performed by a competent person.

No. Mechanical 2‑way/1‑way light switches like the BL106 do not require a neutral conductor to operate. They switch the live feed to the light circuits.

This is a two‑gang device, so you’ll need a standard 2‑gang back box and a compatible faceplate. Check that your wall box depth and mounting hardware suit a standard dual‑gang installation and that the wiring runs permit two independent circuits with appropriate earth grounding.

Wipe the faceplate with a dry or slightly damp cloth; avoid harsh cleaners or immersion in liquids. Ensure the area around the switch is dry and free from moisture to protect internal components and maintain appearance.

The BL106 is pictured in white here, and ABB Inora switches on Fepy may be available in multiple colorways or finishes depending on stock. When selecting, consider your room decor, existing switches, and the available faceplates.

The ABB Inora BL106 is a white, double light switch with two independently operated gangs. Each gang has a 2-way switching mechanism, allowing two separate lighting circuits to be controlled from this location or paired with another compatible 2-way switch for control from two locations. It is rated at 10A and has a modern finish suitable for residential, office and commercial interiors.

“2 gang” means the switch has two rockers for controlling two separate circuits. “2 way” means each circuit can be controlled from two different switch locations when wired to another compatible 2-way switch. This configuration is commonly used for staircases, corridors, bedrooms with bedside controls and rooms with more than one entrance.

The listed dimensions are 35.2 × 86 × 86 mm. Before installation, confirm that the wall box, mounting points, wiring space and surrounding finish are compatible with these dimensions, particularly when replacing a switch from another wiring-accessory range.

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.
