Overview
The Vimar Plana Series is a 1P 10AX 250 V 2-way switch range for flush-mounted electrical installations on board, especially where the finish needs to stay clean and consistent across interior panels and cabins. The switching rating is 10 AX at 250 V, the button can be illuminated with an optional replaceable LED, and the range is available in both 1-module and 2-module formats.
For fit and planning, the 1-module versions measure 22.30 x 49.00 mm at the face, while the 2-module versions measure 44.80 x 49.00 mm. Both formats are 38.40 mm deep with a 24.00 mm built-in depth, which helps when checking clearance behind liners, bulkheads, and switch panels during a refit. The unit is rated IP40, so it suits protected interior areas rather than exposed deck positions or washdown zones.
Key features
- 1P 10AX 250 V 2-way switching for circuits controlled from two locations
- Available in 1-module and 2-module sizes for matching Plana modular layouts
- Choice of screwed terminals or screwless terminals depending on the installation method
- Optional replaceable LED lighting for control and orientation in low-light spaces
- Thermoplastic construction that is halogen-free with a glossy finish
- IP40 rating for protected interior installations
- White and Silver finish options across the range
- Maximum load of 100 W for self-ballasted lamps
Variants
This range varies by finish, module width, and terminal style. The available configurations cover White and Silver finishes, 1-module and 2-module versions, and either screwed terminals or screwless terminals.
The core device remains the same across the range: a 1P 10AX 250 V 2-way switch with a lightable, replaceable button. What matters at ordering stage is matching the correct module count for the support and cover plate, then choosing the terminal style that fits the wiring approach used on the boat.
Compatibility and fit
These switches belong to the Vimar Plana modular system, so they need the matching support, cover plate, and opening size for a proper fit. On a boat, that usually means checking the existing module count in the cabin wall, helm console, or service panel before replacing a switch or building a new panel.
This range is a good match for refits and new interior work where a vessel already uses Plana devices or where a consistent modular look is needed across cabins and protected control areas. Because the switch is rated for 250 V service, it is intended for AC electrical layouts and should be matched to the circuit type and load on board.
Installation and onboard use
Screwed-terminal versions make sense where conductors may be re-terminated during service work. Screwless versions can simplify assembly when the wiring method and conductor type match the terminal design. In either case, rear clearance, module width, and the protected mounting location are the main checks before installation.
