Overview
The Vimar Idea 16763 Rondò cover plate is a 3-module cover plate for IDEA switching devices, with clamp mounting, horizontal or vertical orientation, and a 122.8 x 82.0 x 8.9 mm face size.
It is a trim piece for built-in switch positions where you want a finished front around grouped controls on board. The plate can be used in built-in installations, wall ducts, and subfloor duct boxes, and it includes a label surface that helps when several functions share one location.
The main body is halogen-free thermoplastic. Most versions use a glossy surface, while the White Silk version has a matt lacquered finish. With an IP00 rating, this plate belongs in protected interior spaces rather than exposed wet areas.
Key features

- 122.8 mm width, 82.0 mm height, and 8.9 mm depth

Variants
This range changes mainly in color and surface appearance. The listed options cover Black, Bright White, Graphite Gray, Matte Nickel, White, and a White Silk version.
Most variants use glossy technopolymer. The White Silk version keeps the same general form factor but shifts to a matt lacquered surface. Across the range, the product stays focused on the same 3-module clamp-mount layout, so the difference is mostly the finished look of the switch panel.
Compatibility and fit
This plate is made for IDEA devices and support layouts that use three modules across. It can also be installed vertically in the matching one-module vertical arrangement, so it works well when the switch layout has to follow the space available behind a cabin bulkhead, console panel, or furniture module.
Before ordering, check that the inserts and support frame on the vessel are from the IDEA family and that the installation calls for the Rondò 3-module format. That matters more here than color, because the plate is the final visible trim piece and the underlying support determines whether it will seat correctly.
Installation and location on board
On a boat, this cover plate makes the most sense in cabins, saloons, galleys, heads, and protected helm or service panels where the switching gear is recessed into the joinery or console. It is a sensible match for refit work when the electrical layout is sound and the goal is to clean up the visible finish around existing controls.
Because the plate itself is IP00, it should not be treated as a weather barrier. Keep it out of open decks, washdown zones, and any area that sees direct spray or standing moisture.
