Narrative:

On oct/sun/01 at about XA00, advised by crew of aircraft X fokker F100 at ZZZ cur/fdr test switch inoperative. After calling maintenance control foreman, I was told I would have to replace switch panel before dispatch. None was available at ZZZ. I contacted duty manager for rob panel authority/authorized. Duty manager requested a rob from aircraft Y at hangar and received authority/authorized number from maintenance operations control. I removed panel from aircraft Y and installed it on aircraft Z. A test of switches on panel was normal and logbook signed and aircraft dispatched. After receiving replacement panel and attempting to do data entry in maintenance computer, I discovered that the wrong panel had been robbed and installed instead. Also on looking at maintenance test procedures in maintenance manual chapter 34, I discovered I had not done a full test of avionics switch panel. I immediately advised maintenance operations control foreman of my errors and asked him to locate aircraft and correct my errors. I then ordered panel for aircraft Y and sent svcable part to ZZZ for installation on aircraft Z.
