Description
The WS2G2W is a 20A weatherproof IP65 2 gang 2 way switch designed for controlling two independent outdoor circuits from one compact housing. Built for reliability in tough conditions, it features a durable polycarbonate body, sealed lid, and ergonomic rocker switches for smooth operation — even with gloved hands.
Installer Tip: Use the WS2G2W where you need to split lighting or power zones — for example, front / rear garden lighting, or garage + driveway circuits. Its twin 2-way switches allow versatile control from one waterproof point, keeping installs neat and compliant.
- Dual 20A rated switchgear – control two circuits independently
- IP65 protection – dust-tight and resistant to water jets
- Impact-resistant polycarbonate enclosure with hinged lid
- 2 way operation on both switches – ideal for multi-way lighting
- Multiple gland entries (top, bottom & rear) for installation flexibility
- Complies with BS EN 60669-1 for indoor or outdoor fittings
| Model | Gangs | Operation | Ingress Rating | Common Use |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WS1G2W | 1 | 2 Way | IP65 | Single-zone lighting or pumps |
| WS2G2W | 2 | 2 Way (each) | IP65 | Dual zone lighting / power |
| WS1GR | 1 | Retractive (Bell Push) | IP65 | Momentary trigger inputs |
Part of our Weatherproof Switch & Socket Range, this 2-gang version matches perfectly with other outdoor accessories, offering a consistent, professional finish across the entire install.

FAQs
What can the WS2G2W control?
It can independently switch two outdoor loads — for example, front and rear lighting, or separate sockets and pumps — all within one IP65 enclosure.
Can both switches be wired as 2-way?
Yes. Each gang can be wired as a 2-way switch, allowing dual-point control of two separate circuits (such as top and bottom of a garden path).
Is it suitable for exposed locations?
Yes – the IP65 seal protects against dust and rain. Ensure glands are tightened and the lid fully closed to maintain rating.
Can it be used with LED lighting circuits?
Yes, it’s suitable for resistive and inductive loads up to 20 A. For additional protection, pair with a Type A RCBO or RCD unit.
