When you’re specifying wall-switch and socket hardware for commercial or industrial installations, you need more than just “a switch and a plate”. Choose pce switches and sockets and you’re looking at a system designed for durability, reuse, modularity and service-friendly maintenance. The PCE brand brings industrial-grade quality into wall switches, power sockets, modular combos and decorative switch sets — which means fewer failures, fewer surprise visits, better lifecycle cost.
Let’s talk about pce wall switches. For high-use environments (offices, schools, hospitals), look for switches rated at least 20,000 cycles, metal switching contacts (silver alloy), minimum IP20 for indoor. Select mounting frames that permit “cam-switch” insertion, snap-in reinforcements, quick-release terminals (2.5 mm² or 4 mm²). Field advice: lock your finish (white RAL9003, grey, stainless) and module family so all switches look identical across zones, simplifying spares and service.
With pce power sockets you must check: rated current (16 A, 20 A, 32 A) and voltage (230 V or 400 V three-phase), earthing continuity, child-proof shutters if required, modular mounting in standard backboxes (60 mm or more). PCE’s industrial legacy shows in robust housings and strong terminals. For procurement: choose boxes with captive screws, fix-depth limiting brackets, and clearly labeled part-codes for maintenance traceability.
When you need both switch and socket under one faceplate, go with pce modular switch-socket combos. These allow you to combine e.g. one lighting switch plus one power socket or one USB charger plus socket in a compatible mounting frame. The value: one cut-out in the wall, one universal frame, same finish and same spare-parts logic. Specification wise: verify that the frame supports both modules in terms of current, heat dissipation and wiring clearance. Modules from the same family avoid mismatches later.
In premium zones you need pce decorative switch sets — these feature plated finishes (chrome, brushed nickel), flush-mounted frames, low-profile actuators, ambient-light indicators and compatibility with the same module family behind. Even though they look “design”-oriented, you still need to check electrical spec (thing like 10 A switch rating, 250 V), structure (metal frame behind plate for rigidity), and service access (cover plate screw or snap clip). For procurement: order all finishes of one project at the same time to keep tone and texture consistent.
