The MK Grid Plus range seem to have a 2 gang (single plate) module
plate. You can get switches for that which have neons, and switches that
don't have neons.


Very useful they are too. I have a four way module in the kitchen.
One way has a two way switch, which switches the main outside light
(this also be switched from the shed), the next way has a neon light
module which indicates when the main light is on. The other two ways
have single way switches that operate other outside lights (which
can only ever be on if the main light is on). A great way to
assemble useful switching.


I've just found a useful application for the 2 x single plate combined
back box. One has the DP switch to isolate the central heating, and the
other (with a blanking plate) contains the cross connections that were
nastily squashed into the single switch box previously (flexible to the
boiler jammed in alongside the other load connections).
