Full Description:
Upgrade your home interior with the modern, minimalist aesthetics of the Schneider Unica X Series 20A 250V 1 Gang 2 Way Double Pole Switch with LED Indicator (NUX31D20N_2_JB). Designed specifically for modern residential units, office interiors, and hospitality projects in Malaysia, the Unica X range seamlessly blends sleek architectural design with durable electrical engineering. Finished in a matte Jet Black tint, this switch brings a refined edge to dark-themed or minimalist contemporary walls.
Dual-Pole Safety for High-Load Appliances
Operating at a rated current of 20A and a rated voltage of 250V AC (50/60Hz), this switch is specifically tailored to manage heavy-load electrical equipment such as instant water heaters, storage heaters, high-tonnage air conditioners, and kitchen ovens. Unlike standard single-pole switches that only interrupt the live wire, this 2 Pole Switch (Double Pole) breaks both the Live (L) and Neutral (N) connections simultaneously when switched off. This complete circuit isolation significantly minimizes the risk of residual current leakage and electrical shocks, giving homeowners and facility managers maximum operational safety.
Versatile 1-Gang 2-Way Control
Configured as a 1 Gang 2 Way switch with 1 rocker, the NUX31D20N_2_JB allows dual-location control of connected circuits. Whether managing an appliance from two separate entryways or integrating a master isolation control, the two-way mechanism provides flexible wiring possibilities for residential electrical layouts.
Integrated LED Indicator & Premium Stainless Steel Construction
Never fumble in the dark to check whether your water heater or air conditioner is active. The built-in LED indicator delivers immediate, clear visual feedback on the power status of the connected device. Crafted from premium stainless steel substrate components, the switch plate is engineered for impact resilience, chemical resistance, and long-term color stability without fading under ambient indoor sunlight.
Standards-Compliant Flush Mounting
Designed for flush mounting into standard wall boxes, the switch mounts flush against plaster, wood, and concrete surfaces for a clean appearance. It complies with strict international electrical safety benchmarks, including IEC 60669-1 and TIS 824-2551, backed by official IEC certification. With an IP20 degree of protection, it ensures safe, daily tactile operation in dry indoor settings.
Specification:
Q1: What is a 20A double pole switch used for in Malaysia?
A: In Malaysia, a 20A double pole switch is primarily used for high-power electrical appliances such as water heaters, air conditioners, and induction cooktops. It safely isolates both the live and neutral wires simultaneously to prevent electrical shocks.
Q2: What is the difference between a single pole switch and a double pole switch?
A: A single pole switch breaks only the live wire, leaving the neutral wire connected. A double pole switch disconnects both the live and neutral wires at the same time, providing complete electrical isolation for heavy loads.
Q3: Is the Schneider Unica X 20A switch suitable for instant water heaters?
A: Yes, rated at 20A and 250V AC, this double pole switch meets Malaysian Energy Commission (ST) safety guidelines for controlling domestic instant water heaters and storage water heaters.
Q4: Does the Schneider Unica X NUX31D20N_2_JB have a built-in LED indicator light?
A: Yes, the Schneider Unica X NUX31D20N_2_JB includes a integrated LED indicator that illuminates to show when the connected appliance is powered on.
Q5: Is the Schneider Unica X series switch certified for electrical safety in Malaysia?
A: Yes, it holds IEC certification and complies with international safety standards IEC 60669-1 and TIS 824-2551 for low-voltage household switchgear.
Q6: What mounting box is required for the Schneider Unica X flush switch?
A: It is designed for standard flush-mounted electrical conceal/surface wall boxes commonly used across Malaysian residential and commercial wiring projects.
Q7: Why choose Schneider Jet Black switches over standard white switches?
A: Jet Black switches provide a contemporary aesthetic for modern, industrial, or minimalist interior designs while offering better resistance to visible surface staining compared to traditional white plastic switches.
Q8: What is the IP rating of the Schneider Unica X NUX31D20N_2_JB switch?
A: The switch carries an IP20 rating, making it suitable for dry indoor wall installations like bedrooms, living rooms, and dry bathroom corridors.
