What is a PIR Switch?
Our PIR (Passive Infra Red) Sensor Switches are available in most finishes to complement the vast array of finishes and plate styles on offer at socketsandswitches.com. We offer two versions that cover a 5 metre detection range or a 10 metre detection range.
PIR (Passive Infra Red) Sensor Switches are designed for use in common areas where you might have regular visitors coming and going and the sensor allows for the lights or fans to switch on automatically then switch off again after a given period meaning that lights will never be left on when not required. These are most commonly used to switch lights on in an entrance hall or stairwell and the beauty of this is that they will switch themselves off after a pre-set time.
Previously PIR (Passive Infra Red) Sensor Switches have only been available in a plain white finish with an unsightly large plastic plate and they were found to be unsuitable for many properties where something more stylish was a requirement.
They incorporate a PIR quad sensor to detect movement of a warm body within their detection zone and a photocell to monitor the ambient light level. On detecting movement the PIR will switch the load on then if no more movement is detected within a certain pre-set time, then the PIR will switch off the load.
They have an adjustable time delay setting from 10 seconds up to 40 minutes that you pre-set on installation – the time delay can be reset or changed at any time by readjusting the concealed setting dials.
You can use these as a stand alone switch or link as many PIR (Passive Infra Red) Sensor Switches together as you like. You cannot use standard on/off switches on the same circuit and all other switch positions will also need to be PIR (Passive Infra Red) Sensor Switches or a Double Pole Switch as these PIR (Passive Infra Red) Sensor Switches require a Neutral.
Never use a PIR (Passive Infra Red) Sensor Switch that is not rated higher than the total load applied to it – the maximum loads are 1500w (240v) or 1500w (12v) or 500w (Fluorescent) or 500w (LED).
They will also switch on/off Fans to the maximum load of 250w.
We recommend a 35mm deep wall boxes for mounting our PIR (Passive Infra Red) Sensor Switches.

Look Invisible

They look invisible on the walls, so much better than having obvious sockets. The USB function works well too
Fiddley To Fit But End Result Is Very Good
19 June 2020 by Fiona Black, London - Verified Customer
Electrician moaned a lot about cutting out my wallpaper template but in the end he did and it looks very good. Also fitted some of them on plain painted walls so these were much easier as you simply paint the template provided. All round very pleased.
Pleased.

Very pleased with my clear sockets in bronze. Found these hard to get as others seem to have stopped selling them.
Invisible Switches
23 January 2020 by Jenny Basham, Wiltshire - Verified Customer
I found the help guide on your website really informative and helped me make the decision to buy these. Electrician fitted them (wasnt that happy that he had to cut a template - Im an electrician not a decorator!) but he did it easily enough and the result is fabulous.

Wow these clear switches give a great effect. Almost invisible and the bronze switches I had are fantastic quality. My electrician says they were the best he has ever fitted. I will be reurning for some sockets in the same style once I can afford it!
