Easy, fl exible and faster to install, the new BG GridLite is an innovative clip-in modular switching system that rethinks traditional modular wiring accessories. Combining a screwless, clip-in design with a unique yoke-free construction, GridLite is the fi rst modular switch range of its kind from BG, enabling installers to build bespoke switch confi gurations quickly, replace individual modules with ease and adapt installations without changing the entire device. Designed in response to installer feedback, GridLite delivers a simpler, more versatile approach to modular switching whilst maintaining the premium quality, reliability and aesthetics synonymous with the BG brand. At the heart of GridLite is a screwless clip-in modular system that removes the need for fi ddly fi xing screws and allows modules to simply push into place. The innovative yoke-free design also means modules can be installed either way up, giving electricians greater fl exibility on site. Installers can wire modules before fi tting the faceplate, allowing the plate to be added at the fi nal stage of the job. As well as making installation quicker and more effi cient, this helps reduce the risk of damage during decorating or fi nal fi x. GridLite’s single-width modules are rated at 20A, while standard switch modules fi t 16 mm back boxes, helping to minimise rework on many installations.
