The Clipsal Iconic 3042AL-VW is a 2-gang architrave light switch rated 10A 250V AC, Vivid White complete assembly. The 3042AL-VW is designed for narrow-width mounting on architraves, door frames, or tight spaces where a standard full-width switch plate does not fit. It features dual LED indicators and is part of the Clipsal Iconic range, which offers fully interchangeable skins and covers.
Architrave switches are common in older renovations and new builds where a switch sits beside a door or window trim rather than in the middle of a wall. Standard full-size switch plates overhang the architrave or fittings, making an architrave-profile switch the correct choice. The 3042AL-VW's narrow 38mm width installs cleanly on a standard mounting block without overhang, while the LED backlit rocker adds visual location in dark hallways or passageways.
Installers choose this fitting for consistent finish across a range of rooms and interchangeable cover swaps if a skin upgrade is needed later. The Iconic series cost is moderate, delivery is immediate, and the assembly arrives complete. No mechanism sourcing or cover shopping is required. The dual LED indicators on each rocker function as locator lights, helping occupants find the switch in low-light conditions without adding cost or complexity.

(3042ALVW)
The 3042AL-VW is architrave-profile (38mm wide) and mounts on narrow wall spaces, door trim, and architrave mounting blocks. A standard 2-gang switch (3042-VW) is full-width (86mm) and mounts in the centre of a wall. Choose the architrave version where space is narrow or a standard plate would overhang the trim.
Installation of the 3042AL-VW must be carried out by a licensed electrician. The switch connects to active and neutral conductors in a wall circuit and requires safe termination to a mounting block backing.
Yes, all Clipsal Iconic covers, skins, and plates are interchangeable across the range. The 3042AL-VW cover unclips from the front, and a different Iconic architrave cover clips on in its place. No tools or re-wiring required.
The LED indicators on the 3042AL-VW are built into the rocker mechanism and light up whenever the switch is in the on position. They cannot be disabled without removing the mechanism, but they consume minimal power and many installers find them useful as locator lights in dark hallways.
The 3042AL-VW arrives as a complete assembly. Both rocker mechanisms, LED indicators, and the Vivid White clip-on cover are included. No additional parts are required for installation.
The Clipsal 3042AL-VW is available online from Sparky Direct, with Australia-wide delivery to any state or territory including regional areas. Sparky Direct is an Australian electrical wholesaler established in 2005, supplying more than 500,000 customers with transparent trade pricing.
