Schneider Electric UnicaX 16A 1-Gang International Socket, Jet Black, Shuttered & Multi‑Standard

About this item

Schneider Electric UnicaX 16A 1-Gang International Socket, Jet Black, Shuttered & Multi‑Standard is purpose-built for UAE interiors where premium aesthetics, everyday safety, and installer-friendly details matter across apartments, villas, hospitality suites, and Grade‑A offices. In the Emirates, designers often separate decorative or specialist points from general services so spaces can balance ambience, energy efficiency, and clean sightlines; this product supports that approach with a refined faceplate and robust internals. In daily use, it excels for contemporary interiors and collaboration benches in minimalist palettes, delivering reliable access while keeping visual noise to a minimum. The exterior finish in deep jet black holds up to frequent wipe‑downs and looks composed under bright mixed lighting in lobbies, guest rooms, and client‑facing areas, helping facility teams maintain a ‘fresh handover’ look with routine cleaning. Safety and longevity are central: working components are specified to provide stable connections in hot, dusty Gulf environments; clearly marked terminals and a rigid chassis streamline first‑fix and retrofit on gypsum partitions and masonry walls; and a low‑profile geometry keeps projection tight for housekeeping efficiency and neat furniture alignment. For planners and MEP contractors, the product slots neatly into BS‑influenced wiring practices and 230–240 V/50 Hz systems used across the UAE, and it belongs to a coherent family so designers can align the look with companion modules on the same wall—power, USB charging, dimming, SAT/TV/data, and control—creating a tidy, unified visual language. That unification simplifies submittals, approvals, and O&M spares while giving occupants the right ports in the right places. In homes, it supports daily routines without clutter; in offices, it keeps touchdown areas and collaboration benches adapter‑free and presentation‑ready; in hospitality, it reduces guest friction and call‑outs for adapters or cable management. From a lifecycle standpoint, the brand’s regional channel ensures supply continuity and documentation for handover; durable fascias preserve appearance under frequent cleaning; and straightforward servicing shortens MAC (moves/adds/changes) tasks. UAE relevance is practical: mixed‑use towers and hotel projects require hardware that looks composed in palettes from white and oak to charcoal and stone while tolerating high ambient temperatures, airborne dust, and routine sanitisation. Global plug acceptance keeps worktops adapter‑free. Together, those qualities translate into fewer revisits, cleaner walls, happier occupants, and predictable maintenance budgets. Whether outfitting a boutique hotel bedside on the Palm, a family lounge in Dubai Hills, a reception desk in Abu Dhabi’s business district, or an executive suite in Sharjah, this product combines discreet looks, shuttered safety, and UAE‑ready robustness for long‑term value and a cohesive user experience. The coherent family approach also supports phased delivery—procurement stays simple, spares remain interchangeable, and facility teams can standardise training and documentation—benefits that compound over time in the UAE’s fast‑moving fit‑out market.
