Product Description

Legrand Myrius NextGen 3 Pin Socket is a 2-module socket for the Myrius NextGen modular range, available in a 6A version for low-power electronics and a dual-rated 6/16A version that also takes heavy appliances. Choose Classic White or Charcoal Grey to match your switchboard.

Built-in shutters stay closed until a proper 3-pin plug is inserted, helping prevent accidental contact with live parts – a useful safety feature in homes with children. The sturdy construction gives reliable, long-lasting connections. Pick the rating carefully: use 6A for chargers, TVs and lamps, and 6/16A wherever a heater or motor appliance such as a geyser, microwave or refrigerator might be plugged in.

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

1. Power Off: Switch off the main supply and confirm with a tester before starting
2. Connect the Wires: Connect Live (Red/Brown), Neutral (Black/Blue) and Earth (Green/Yellow) to the correct terminals
3. Mount the Module: Clip the socket into the Myrius NextGen plate frame, making sure it is aligned
4. 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.

FAQs

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.
