Switch and Socket Ratings: 6 A to 32 A
Every modular switch and socket we make, by current rating: what the rating is for, how many modules it takes, and the KEMPS and VIZA product codes with MRP. The codes and prices are read from our catalogue, so this table changes when the catalogue does.
Choosing between a 6 A and a 16 A socket? Read 6A vs 16A socket. Planning a board? The plate size calculator turns these module sizes into the plate you need.
