UMS 3 Series 15A 1 Gang Switched Socket 3115
The UMS 3 Series 15A 1 Gang SP Switched Socket Outlet (Model: 3115) is a SIRIM-certified, high-amperage wall power socket manufactured in Malaysia by UMS-Neiken. Designed specifically for high-power appliances such as air conditioners, water heaters, and heavy-duty kitchen equipment, it features a robust single-pole switch design with round-pin compatibility. It is ideal for residential, commercial, and industrial flush or surface wall mount applications.
Full Description:
When powering heavy-duty electrical equipment in Malaysian homes or commercial facilities, standard 13A square-pin sockets often fall short of meeting peak power demands safely. The UMS 3 Series 15A 1 Gang Single Pole Switched Socket Outlet (3115) offers a dedicated high-capacity power point engineered to safely supply electricity to appliances requiring dedicated 15 Amp connections.
Heavy-Duty 15A Power Performance
Operating at standard 250V AC ratings, the UMS 3115 switched socket outlet is built to deliver up to 15 Amperes of continuous current safely. Unlike standard 13A plugs, the 15A configuration uses a round 3-pin connection format, minimizing contact resistance and heat build-up when running continuous high-load electrical items.
Common High-Power Applications
- Air Conditioners: Ideal for powering wall-mounted split air conditioning units.
- Instant & Storage Water Heaters: Provides reliable power supply for bathroom water heating units.
- Heavy-Duty Kitchen Appliances: Suitable for electric ovens, large refrigerators, and commercial food warmers.
- Industrial & Lab Equipment: Powers heavy electronics, tools, and workshop machinery.
Certified Malaysian Safety Standards
Safety is paramount in electrical installations. The UMS 3 Series 15A Switched Socket Outlet complies strictly with recognized Malaysian and international quality standards, including MS1577, BS 546, and SS472. It is 100% SIRIM certified and JKR approved, making it trusted by local contractors, electricians, and interior fit-out teams across Malaysia.
Durable Build & Easy Wall Installation
Constructed from flame-retardant, high-impact white polycarbonate (PVC), the UMS 3 Series socket features a clean, minimal aesthetic that blends effortlessly into modern living rooms, offices, and industrial environments. Standard 8.5cm x 8.5cm single-gang dimensions ensure hassle-free replacement onto existing flush wall boxes or surface pattress boxes.
Q1: Can I use the UMS 3115 15A socket for an air conditioner or water heater?
A: Yes. The UMS 3 Series 15A socket outlet is specifically designed for high-power appliances such as split air conditioners, water heaters, and electric ovens.
Q2: Can the UMS 3115 be installed as both flush mount and surface mount?
A: Yes. It can be installed flush against the wall into standard concealed backboxes or surface-mounted using standard PVC pattress boxes.
Q3: What is a single-pole (SP) switched socket?
A: A single-pole (SP) switched socket controls the live wire connection to power off the appliance at the switch without disconnecting the neutral wire.
Q4: Why does my 15A socket switch warm up during heavy appliance use?
A: While slight warmth is normal under heavy current draw, excessive heat indicates loose wiring, corrosion, or overloading. Installing a SIRIM-certified socket like the UMS 3115 helps ensure stable electrical conductivity.
Q5: Where is UMS electrical hardware manufactured?
A: UMS electrical products are proudly made in Malaysia by UMS-Neiken Group Berhad.
Q6: Is a 15A socket required by Malaysian electrical installation codes?
A: Yes, Suruhanjaya Tenaga (ST) regulations mandate dedicated high-amperage circuits and suitable 15A rated outlets or isolator switches for continuous high-load appliances.
