Overview
The Vimar Idea 16766 Rondò Cover Plate is a 6-module cover plate for Vimar IDEA wiring devices, with clamp mounting and a shape that can be installed horizontally or vertically. It is intended for built-in installations and works with a mounting grid.
This is the visible finishing plate for a 6-module switch or outlet assembly, so it matters most when you are matching an existing IDEA installation, replacing a worn plate, or keeping the finish consistent across cabins, galleys, heads, and other interior spaces on board. Its 197.8 x 82 mm face size and low 8.9 mm depth help it sit cleanly against the panel once the compatible support is already in place.
Because it carries an IP00 rating, this plate belongs in protected interior locations rather than exposed deck areas. It is a good fit for refits and service work where the vessel already uses Vimar IDEA components and you need a 6-module Rondò style plate with the correct mounting format.

Variants
This range is offered in several color and finish combinations. Across the line, the main changes are the color and whether the plate comes in a plastic version or a Silk version.
The available options include Idea White, Graphite Gray, Bright White, and Black in plastic, plus Idea White, Graphite Gray, and Black in Silk. The shared format across the range is the 6-module Rondò plate style with clamp mounting for IDEA installations.
Compatibility and fit
This cover plate is for the Vimar IDEA system, so the first thing to confirm is that your switch or socket assembly already uses IDEA modules and the matching 6-module support. It is not a universal plate for mixed switch families.
On boats, that matters most during panel updates where the electrical accessories are already grouped in Vimar frames. When the underlying support and modules match, replacing the front plate is a straightforward way to refresh the finish without changing the whole assembly.
Installation and onboard use
The plate suits interior accommodation spaces where a clean finished face is needed around switches, outlets, or service controls. It works well in cabins, saloons, galleys, heads, and helm interiors where the installation is protected from direct spray and weather.
For exterior locations or washdown areas, the IP00 rating should be taken into account before specifying it. In practical terms, this plate is best used where appearance, system matching, and easy replacement are more important than environmental sealing.
