About the 16 AMP. Switch / Universal Socket
16 AMP. Switch / Universal Socket is part of the VIYONA Series catalogue, manufactured at our Mumbai works. It is listed under VIYONA Switches and Sockets.
In the printed catalogue it is listed under "16 AMP. SWITCH / UNIVERSAL SOCKET", packed 10 pieces to a box. It is sold by the full box, not as single pieces.
Match the rating to the load
The current rating is the maximum the accessory is built to carry, not a recommendation. A geyser, an air conditioner or an oven belongs on a 16 A or 20 A circuit of its own; lights and phone chargers do not need one. If you are unsure what a circuit draws, ask the electrician doing the installation.

Choosing a modular socket
6A or 16A: match the appliance
A 6A socket is for light loads: phone and laptop chargers, lamps, the television, the router, a table fan. A 16A socket is for heavy heating and motor loads, typically the geyser, AC, heater, iron, microwave and washing machine; the fridge is commonly given one too. The full list is in our 6A vs 16A socket guide.
A 16A plug will not fit a 6A socket; the larger pins are a safety feature. Never defeat it with an adaptor, and remember that a bigger socket alone does not make a point safe: the circuit behind it must be sized and protected by a licensed electrician.
Universal, pins and shutters
A combined 6/16A universal socket takes both plug sizes, but belongs only on a circuit wired and protected for 16A. Five-pin sockets are 6A only. A Shutter keeps the openings closed until a plug goes in, which matters in any home with small children.
Buy sockets and switches for one board from the same brand so they sit flush in the frame.

Frequently asked questions
View allWhat is the current rating of the 16 AMP. Switch / Universal Socket?
It is rated 16 A. That is the maximum the accessory is built to carry, not a target — a geyser, air conditioner or oven belongs on a higher-rated circuit of its own, while lights and chargers do not need one.
How is the 16 AMP. Switch / Universal Socket different from the 6 AMP. Sockets?
Current rating: 16 A here, 6 A on the 6 AMP. Sockets; Box quantity: 10 here, 20 on the 6 AMP. Sockets; MRP: ₹74 – ₹93 here, ₹26 – ₹40 on the 6 AMP. Sockets. Both are in our printed catalogue, which is where these figures come from.
How many 16 AMP. Switch / Universal Socket come in a box?
The printed catalogue packs it 10 pieces to a box. We sell by the full box, never single pieces — anyone can buy, from a homeowner to a contractor.

Is the 16 AMP. Switch / Universal Socket ISI or BIS certified?
VIYONA Series products are made to Indian Standards under the ISI and BIS licences listed on this page. An ISI mark means nothing without the CM/L licence number beside it, so check ours against the mark on the product you are handed — from us or from any manufacturer.
