Switches & sockets

Switches and socket-outlets should match the circuit rating and installation boxes. Aesthetic ranges differ, but mechanical and electrical ratings are the safety-critical attributes.

• Lighting switches
• 5A/6A and 15A/16A socket outlets
• Fan regulators and dimmers (compatible types)
• Data/TV plates as part of modular grids

• Current and voltage ratings must meet circuit design.
• Use shuttered sockets where required for child safety.
• Modular vs classical plate systems affect back-box choice.
• IP ratings matter for outdoors and wet zones.

Wide aesthetic premium. Prioritise certified electrical ratings before finishes.

Location rates move with freight, taxes and local supply. Figures below are planning context only — confirm before budgeting.

• Retail electrical stores

  MRP / slab rate

  Series matching avoids mixed plate gaps.

• Project supply

  Bulk quote

  Spare modules help future changes.

• Modular switches

  Common in new interiors; grid flexibility.

• Classical piano type

  Still used in many regions.

• Weatherproof accessories

  Exterior and utility areas.

• Electrical wiring
• Compare switchgear SKUs

• Buy spares of the same series for future additions.
• Confirm back-box depth for dimmers and USB outlets.
• Avoid mixing incompatible module brands in one plate.

• Electrical wiring

  Conductors and cables distributing power in buildings. Sizing and protection must follow electrical design and local codes — not rule-of-thumb blogs.

• Conduits

  Tubes protecting electrical cables in concealed or surface runs. Material (PVC/MS) and diameter follow wiring design.
