Have just found this:

but the max load is 400W and I need to control 600W.


Jesus. I hope you're responsible for floodlighting the Eiffel tower or
something. 600W is usually utterly inappropriate even for the most obscene
interior or exterior lighting in a domestic property. Perhaps you should
work on reducing the load, rather than finding a larger switch?


Sorry - I should have said that it was a maximum potential load
of 600W. It actually only has 300W at the moment, but some
of the fittings can take higher capacity bulbs, so I ought to have
a setup that allows for that possibility. These are external lights,
and are spread far and wide about my property, so that I can
see where I'm walking at night.
