About the Tesla SW5V 5 Gang Flush Switch

The SW5V is the 5 gang vertical-format version of the Tesla Classic Series flush switch — five rockers arranged in a column on a single white plate (116mm tall, 74mm wide), each independently switching one circuit. It is a complete switch: mechanisms and cover plate are included and assembled, ready to connect cables and fix to the wall. For those who prefer to select and fit mechanisms individually, the SW5PL is the unloaded grid plate equivalent.

Five gang switches are used in high-demand switching positions where many circuits converge at a single wall location. In residential settings this includes large open-plan living and dining areas with multiple lighting zones, home theatres and media rooms, and outdoor entertaining areas where lighting, fans, and feature lighting are all switched from one position. In commercial environments, 5 gang switches suit offices, function rooms, retail spaces, and any area where several lighting circuits or loads are logically grouped at one switching point.

The vertical format (SW5V) has the five rockers stacked top to bottom — the standard orientation for multi-gang switches in Australian residential and commercial electrical installations. The horizontal equivalent (SW5) has five rockers arranged side by side on a wider plate. Both share the same overall dimensions and 16A 250V AC rating.

All Tesla Classic Series SW range switches share the same plate footprint (74mm × 116mm, 84mm mounting centres) and rating from 1 to 6 gang, in both horizontal and vertical formats — making the range fully consistent and interchangeable in terms of wall opening and mounting requirements.

Q: What is the difference between the SW5V and the SW5PL?
A: The SW5V is a complete, loaded switch — five mechanisms and cover plate included, ready to wire and install. The SW5PL is an unloaded grid plate and cover — no mechanisms included, purchased and fitted separately. Choose SW5V for a straightforward complete switch; choose SW5PL if you need to specify individual mechanism types for each of the five gang positions.

Q: What is the difference between the SW5V and the SW5?
A: The SW5V is vertical format — five rockers stacked top to bottom, plate is 116mm tall × 74mm wide. The SW5 is horizontal format — five rockers side by side, plate is 74mm tall × 116mm wide. Both are complete switches with the same plate dimensions and 16A 250V AC rating.

Q: Can the SW5V be used for two-way switching?
A: The SW5V contains single-pole, single-way mechanisms — standard one-location on/off switching per gang. For two-way switching from two locations, a two-way switch mechanism is required. The Tesla Classic Series includes two-way switch variants for this purpose.
