Learn more by watching our HYSWPC | Ceiling Pull Cord Switch 10AX - 250v AC video.
The Trader HYSWPC is a ceiling pull cord switch rated 10AX 250V AC, with a 1.8-metre cord and four-terminal configuration, designed for mounting directly to timber or plaster ceilings. The HYSWPC is a two-way plus loop switch mechanism suitable for controlling lighting, fans, heat lamps, and hot water boosters from a ceiling location.
Ceiling switches avoid the need to run switch cables down walls, and eliminate the visual clutter of wall-mounted switchgear. They are commonly used in bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchens, and laundries where an overhead switching point is more convenient than a wall-mounted equivalent. The pull cord can be positioned over a bed, in the centre of a room, or near an appliance for convenient, accessible switching without additional wiring runs down the wall.
Licensed electricians value the HYSWPC for straightforward installation on existing ceilings without major structural modification. The mechanism includes a cord restraint that allows on-site cable length adjustment, so the pull cord can be trimmed to the exact height required for the installation. The product includes mounting hardware for both timber and plaster surfaces, and screws are protected to minimise the risk of unauthorised removal or tampering.
The HYSWPC is not suitable for outdoor use, damp exposed ceilings, or non-ceiling mounting. It is a ceiling-only device and should not be recessed into walls or used as a wall-mounted switch. Do not use the HYSWPC in bathrooms within 1.5 metres of a water source, and do not install directly above a bath or shower recess where water splash or steam can reach the mechanism.

(HYSWPC)
The HYSWPC is a ceiling-mounted pull cord switch, whereas wall switches are mounted on the wall at chest height. Ceiling switches eliminate the need to run wiring down the wall and provide a switching point directly overhead, making them ideal for bedrooms, bathrooms, and other spaces where a centralised overhead control is preferred. The HYSWPC has a four-terminal configuration suitable for two-way or multiway circuits, whereas many wall switches are single-pole only.
Yes. The HYSWPC is supplied with a 1.8-metre cord and includes a cord restraint mechanism that allows you to adjust the cord length on-site. You can shorten the cord by securing it at the restraint point to suit your ceiling height and room layout. The mechanism is designed to be accessible during installation without requiring special tools.
Installation on plaster ceilings requires expansion anchors or similar fasteners suitable for plaster. The HYSWPC is supplied with mounting hardware for both timber and plaster surfaces. A licensed electrician should confirm that the ceiling joists or plaster base are sound and can support the pull cord mechanism and wiring. The product cannot be installed on weak plaster or where the ceiling structure is uncertain.
The 10AX rating indicates the switch is rated to carry a maximum continuous current of 10 amperes on a 250-volt AC circuit. This makes the HYSWPC suitable for general-purpose domestic lighting, fan motors, and low-load hot water booster circuits. For loads exceeding 10 amperes, a higher-rated switch or separate circuit protection is required. A licensed electrician must confirm that the circuit feeding the HYSWPC is protected by a 10A circuit breaker or RCD.
The Trader HYSWPC includes a ten-year domestic warranty covering manufacturing defects when the switch is installed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the Australian electrical standards. The warranty does not cover damage from misuse, impact, water ingress, or improper installation. Any warranty claim must be made through Sparky Direct with proof of purchase and installation date.
The Trader HYSWPC 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.
