{"product_id":"qbp143506","title":"Vimar Idea Swiss Type 13 Socket Outlet, 2P+E, 10A 250V, IP20","description":"\u003ch6\u003eOverview\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Vimar Idea 16226 Swiss socket outlet is a one-module, flush-mounted 2P+E outlet for Swiss Type 13 connections, rated at 10 A and 250 V AC with 50 to 60 Hz service. It uses screw terminals and sits within the Vimar Idea modular range, which makes it relevant for new interior electrical panels and like-for-like replacements where that platform is already fitted.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts IP20 housing, thermoplastic body and matt finish place it in protected interior spaces rather than exposed deck or washdown areas. The device measures 24.8 mm wide, 50.1 mm high and 49.8 mm deep, so it is compact enough for cabin joinery, console panels and other flush-mount positions where space behind the faceplate is limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is an AC mains outlet, not a 12 V or 24 V DC socket. On board, it makes sense where the vessel uses a Swiss-standard shore power or inverter-fed AC circuit and the surrounding Idea switches and trim need to stay consistent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwiss Type 13 outlet format with 2P+E contacts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10 A, 250 V AC rating with 50 to 60 Hz frequency range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne-module format within the Vimar Idea series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlush-mounted body with screw-terminal connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP20 protection for dry, protected installation areas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHalogen-free thermoplastic construction with matt finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront label space\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact body size: 24.8 x 50.1 x 49.8 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eVariants\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis outlet is offered in two color finishes within the same Swiss Type 13, 10 A, 250 V AC format.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe listed variants differ by front color. The one-module layout, flush mounting, screw-terminal connection, IP20 protection and body dimensions stay the same across the two options.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVM16226.B: Color Ivory. This lighter finish works well where the surrounding plates or interior trim lean toward off-white tones.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVM16226: Color Gray. This darker finish suits gray control panels and interiors that use a more technical look.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause this unit is part of the Idea device family, it is meant to be installed with the matching Idea mounting support and finish components. Check that the vessel already uses Swiss Type 13 outlets and that the surrounding modular hardware matches the Idea pattern before ordering a replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs an IP20 outlet, it belongs in enclosed, dry areas such as cabins, galleys, crew spaces or protected helm interiors. It is not the right choice for cockpit coamings, exterior bulkheads or other places that see spray, rain or routine washdowns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a good fit for boats that distribute 250 V AC service through Swiss-standard receptacles and want a clean flush-mounted finish inside the accommodation spaces. It also makes sense in refits where a worn outlet needs to be replaced without changing the surrounding Vimar Idea styling.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vimar","offers":[{"title":"Ivory","offer_id":52371087032501,"sku":"QBP143506-V6","price":19.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Gray","offer_id":52371087065269,"sku":"QBP143506-V7","price":19.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1314880_qbp143506.jpg?v=1774059184","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp143506","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
