Before You Buy
Crucial things to check
- Check Your Load – 6A: Choose 6A for low-power electronics such as smartphone chargers, TVs, desktop computers and bedside lamps
- Check Your Load – 6/16A: Upgrade to 6/16A if there is any chance a heating or motor appliance will be plugged in, such as a microwave, geyser, refrigerator, vacuum cleaner or iron
- Match the Wire: Use 1.5 sq mm copper wiring for the 6A socket, and a 2.5 sq mm copper wire loop for the 6/16A socket to prevent overheating
- Match the Colour: Choose the same colour as your Myrius NextGen plate for a seamless look
Installation Guidelines
- Power Off: Switch off the main supply and confirm with a tester before starting
- Connect the Wires: Connect Live (Red/Brown), Neutral (Black/Blue) and Earth (Green/Yellow) to the correct terminals
- Mount the Module: Clip the socket into the Myrius NextGen plate frame, making sure it is aligned
- Test: Restore power and check the socket with a plug tester or low-power device before regular use
Electrical work should be done by a qualified electrician.
1) What is the difference between 6A and 6/16A?
The 6A socket is for lighter loads such as chargers, TVs, computers and lamps. The dual-rated 6/16A socket accepts both 6A and 16A plugs and can handle appliances up to 16A (about 3,800W at 240V), such as geysers, microwaves, refrigerators, irons and vacuum cleaners. If a heavy appliance might ever be plugged in, choose 6/16A.
2) What wire size should I use?
Use 1.5 sq mm copper wire for the 6A socket and a 2.5 sq mm copper wire loop for the 6/16A socket. Thinner wire on a 16A point can overheat. Always follow local electrical codes and use a licensed electrician.
3) Does it have child safety features?
Yes. Built-in shutters keep the socket holes closed until a proper 3-pin plug is pushed in, which helps stop children inserting objects into the socket.
4) Which colour should I choose?
Match the colour to your switchboard plate: Classic White for standard interiors or Charcoal Grey for a modern, darker look.
5) Will international plugs fit?
It is designed for Indian standard 3-pin plugs (Type D). For international plugs, use a suitable adapter.
