About the VIZA Series Sockets V263

The VIZA Series Sockets V263 is a 16 A socket viza (porceilien base) from the VIZA Modular range. It is listed in the Vinayak Electricals catalogue as V263, and is manufactured at our Mumbai works.

It fits 9 plate ranges — CHERRY Modular Plates, SLIM Modular Plates, AQUA CHERRY Modular Plates, GLASSO Modular Plates, ROYAL Modular Plates, TEYOMA Modular Plates, V-WOOD Modular Plates, DECORE Modular Plates and CRISTAL Modular Plates — so the same module can be specified across a project without changing the plate design in every room.

In the printed catalogue it is listed under "6/13/16 AMP. SOCKET OUTLET", 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.

One module, many plate designs

This module fits every plate range listed above, so a project can standardise on one set of modules and still vary the plate design room by room. It also means a replacement years later is a catalogue code, not a hunt for a discontinued look.

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.
