Flush-Mounted Switches and Sockets (White)
White is a classic that never goes out of style and fits into any minimalist or modern interior. However, "white" only retains its appeal if it doesn't lose its color. When choosing cheap flush-mounted switches and sockets made of ordinary plastic, homeowners often find that after a few years these elements turn ugly yellow and stand out against freshly painted walls. The VIDEX white flush-mounted series (mechanisms) is created so your interior looks fresh for decades, offering engineering-level safety.
The technological and TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) superiority of our white mechanisms:
- UV-resistant polycarbonate (PC): The front panels of our mechanisms are made of top-class PC material. Not only is it scratch-resistant, but it is also completely immune to the sun's UV rays - white will remain snow-white even after 10 years.
- Safety and fire resistance: The material is self-extinguishing. Even if you connect a faulty device, the socket will not support a flame. Internal silver-plated contacts in the switches ensure a quiet and safe click without sparks, while the phosphor bronze used in the sockets guarantees the plug won't loosen.
- Modular freedom: Here you are buying the "heart" itself - the mechanism. Whether you need a simple switch, two-way switch, TV/Internet outlet, or Schuko socket with earth, you can conveniently insert and combine them all in VIDEX decorative frames.
Don't overpay for the brand on the packaging. Choose reliable and non-yellowing mechanisms that will last a lifetime. Choose reliable quality in our e-shop!
Q: How does the polycarbonate and ABS composite prevent white switches and sockets from yellowing?
Q: What mounting box diameter and wall depth are required for flush-mounted installation?
Q: How does the modular architecture of the VIDEX flush-mounted series facilitate the installation process on site?
Q: What solutions ensure the quiet and smooth operation of the switch mechanism?
Q: In which indoor areas is it engineeringly permissible to install switches with an IP20 protection class?
A: This composite is saturated with UV stabilizers that prevent solar ultraviolet radiation from degrading the material's RAL 9016 pigment. Unlike recycled plastic, the material retains its original tone even in direct sunlight and is anti-static, not attracting household dust.
Q: What mounting box diameter and wall depth are required for flush-mounted installation?
A: The system is engineeringly standardized for insertion into European Ø 60 mm to Ø 68 mm drywall or masonry flush-mounted boxes (EU Wall Box). The box depth must be at least 40 mm to ensure safe cable routing and free space for the expansion of the spring claws.
Q: How does the modular architecture of the VIDEX flush-mounted series facilitate the installation process on site?
A: mechanisms are physically separated from the decorative frame and central rocker, allowing electrical installation to be carried out in stages. The electrician can install the mechanisms during the construction phase, and simply snap on the white panels at the very end, protecting them from construction dust and paint.
Q: What solutions ensure the quiet and smooth operation of the switch mechanism?
A: Self-lubricating polymers are used in the toggle axis and lever assembly, reducing mechanical friction between moving parts. An optimized compression spring force ensures precise rocker fixation with a low-frequency click, preventing hollow and rattling noises in acoustically sensitive rooms.
Q: In which indoor areas is it engineeringly permissible to install switches with an IP20 protection class?
A: The IP20 index indicates protection against the ingress of solid particles (over 12.5 mm) but does not include waterproofing. This class is intended for dry and heated rooms such as living rooms and offices, while wet zones or terraces must obligatorily use sealed series with an IP44/IP65 marking.
