Modern Elegance Meets Industrial Engineering
Upgrade your home and office electrical infrastructure with the Schneider UnicaX Series 13A 250V Twin Gang Double Pole Switch Socket Outlet (Model: NUXT25D_DG). Unica X represents the pinnacle of Schneider Electric’s flush-mount wiring accessories, designed specifically for interior designers, electrical contractors, and homeowners who refuse to compromise on design or safety.

The matte metallic texture effortlessly complements contemporary interior palettes, industrial architectural themes, concrete accent walls, and minimalist spaces across Malaysia.
Double Pole Safety for Maximum Protection
Unlike standard single pole wall outlets, the Schneider UnicaX NUXT25D_DG incorporates Double Pole (DP) switching technology. Double pole switches isolate both the Live (L) and Neutral (N) electrical lines simultaneously when switched off. This provides an essential safety layer by completely disconnecting appliances from the mains supply, drastically reducing the risk of accidental electric shocks, residual current leakage, and equipment damage caused by wiring faults or power surges.Whether powering high-drain home entertainment centers, kitchen appliances, or sensitive office IT electronics, double pole switching gives you absolute peace of mind for daily operation.
Standardized British Dual Socket Capability
Designed to match Malaysian electrical wiring configurations, the socket features two standard 3-pin British outlets rated at 13A and 250V AC (50 Hz). The flush-mount profile allows the unit to sit almost flat against wall boxes, delivering a clean finish across plaster, timber, or tile surfaces.
Durable Construction & Built to Last
Engineered with heavy-duty internal contacts and fire-retardant synthetic core housing wrapped in metallic stainless steel, the UnicaX NUXT25D_DG is built to withstand repeated insertions without mechanical wear or contact loosening. The IP20 protection rating guards against direct finger contact and foreign debris intrusion, keeping internal connections secure.
Specification:
Q1: What is the main benefit of a double pole switch socket like the Schneider NUXT25D_DG?
A: A double pole switch disconnects both the Live and Neutral wires simultaneously, offering superior electrical safety compared to single pole switches by ensuring total isolation of connected devices.
Q2: Is the Schneider UnicaX twin gang socket suitable for standard Malaysian wall boxes?
A: Yes, the Schneider UnicaX NUXT25D_DG follows standard British 2-gang dimensions and can be flush-mounted into standard double-gang backboxes used in Malaysian residential and commercial wiring.
Q3: What is the difference between single pole and double pole 13A socket outlets?
A: Single pole switches only cut off the Live wire, whereas double pole switches break both Live and Neutral connections for maximum user and appliance protection.
Q4: Can I install the Schneider UnicaX NUXT25D_DG outdoors?
A: No, this unit carries an IP20 protection rating, meaning it is intended for indoor dry locations only. Outdoor installations require an IP56 or IP66 weatherproof enclosure.
Q5: Can this 13A socket support high-wattage appliances like air conditioners or induction cookers?
A: It supports general home appliances up to 13 Amps (approx. 2800W–3000W at 250V). Heavy loads like water heaters or 2HP+ air conditioners require dedicated 20A or 32A isolation switches.
Q6: Why choose Schneider UnicaX over standard plastic switch sockets?
A: Schneider UnicaX provides an ultra-slim flush profile, real stainless steel aesthetic finish, higher mechanical durability, and reliable double pole protection compared to basic plastic alternatives.
