Scanford Elegance Bell
The Scanford Elegance Bell Switch facilitates reliable momentary contact for signaling systems. This component integrates into the wider Elegance series of modular electrical fittings. It supports a maximum current of 10A at 250V AC. The internal mechanism utilizes silver alloy contact points to minimize electrical arcing. This construction ensures longevity over thousands of operating cycles. The external plate consists of high-grade polycarbonate material. This thermoplastic offers flame retardancy and resistance to impact. It maintains structural integrity under varying environmental temperatures found in indoor installations.

The finish on this Scanford switch is actually quite nice for the price. I used it for a gate bell installation in Lang’ata and it looks very decent on the wall. The action is firm, not loose like some other brands I’ve tried. Happy with the purchase.

Good quality bell switch. Fits perfectly and looks very neat compared to the old ones. Fast delivery to Eldoret as well.
