Collection: Inline Cord Switches

An inline cord switch is a small switch fitted mid-cable between a lamp and its plug, allowing you to turn the light on or off without unplugging it or reaching for a wall switch. Browse our full range in Switches & Sockets.

Always disconnect the lamp from the mains before starting. Cut the live conductor of the cable at the desired position, strip the wire ends, and connect them to the switch terminals according to the manufacturer's markings. Secure the cord grips and close the housing. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

Most household lamps require a standard 2 A / 250 V inline switch. If you are using a high-wattage bulb or multiple bulbs on the same circuit, check the total wattage and select a switch rated accordingly. Always verify the specifications of the cable you are working with.

Standard inline cord switches are simple on/off devices and do not provide dimming functionality. If you need to dim your lamp, you should use a dedicated dimmer switch. Check our Wall Switches range for dimmer-compatible options.

Rocker inline switches use a push-click action to toggle on and off, while rotary switches use a twisting motion. Rocker types are more common and easier to replace. Both perform the same basic function; the choice comes down to personal preference and the style of your lamp.

Yes, standard inline cord switches work with LED lamps as they simply interrupt the live conductor. Because LED bulbs draw very little current, virtually any standard-rated inline switch will handle them comfortably. Always check that the switch's minimum load rating, if specified, is met.
