What does an electrician call this?

This is a 1-gang 2-way 10AX switch, or a 1-gang intermediate 10AX switch

Where is this used in the home?

A 1-gang 2-way switch is commonly used for controlling a single light source from one or two places. A 1-gang intermediate is used as the middle switch of three, controlling a single light source (for example in a hallway).

Installation

THPG rotary switches are easy to install, but remember, the round backplate versions don’t fit onto standard British back boxes! Just follow the step-by-step pictures below or go to our THPG rotary switch installation page.

We used a European round box in the pictures but the procedure is the same for square boxes.
