Black Nickel

Why Choose Black Nickel Switches & Black Nickel Sockets

There are many situations where a black nickel socket is the best choice to go for compared to other materials. 

• Black nickel sockets have very strong corrosion resistance, so if that is a major concern then going for black switches and sockets should be an easy choice to make. The black nickel switches' or sockets' plating’s uniformity and smoothness make sure that moisture and other elements do not get through and therefore protect the component itself. At the same time, black nickel sockets plating works better and lasts longer. 
• Uniformity is another big advantage that comes with nickel-plated black switches and sockets. Since black nickel is also used for coating irregularly shaped items, this allows nickel plug sockets and nickel switches to have a high level of uniformity. Every inch of the black switches and sockets gets protection because black nickel reaches all types of rough surfaces, holes, and hard-to-cover areas. 

Types of Black Nickel Sockets 

Black nickel sockets are primarily used to allow communication between two different processes on the same or different machines. An electrical black nickel socket is a product that bridges the gap between the electrical equipment and the primary power supply it gets connected to. 

Many different types of black nickel sockets differ in voltage, current rating, shape, size, and type of connectors. Black nickel sockets at Meteor are available in 3-pin settings with 5-13 Amp ratings such as the 2 Gang 13 Amp Socket DP Switched - Black Nickel with Black Insert and 5 Amp Round Pin Socket 3 Pin - Black Nickel with Black Insert.

Black Nickel Socket Support Module

• Dimmer – Black Nickel Socket Dimmers are devices which are connected to various kinds of light fixtures and are used to lower the brightness of lighting. These Black Nickel Socket Dimmers can be found in single-pole, three-way, and multi-location versions. Black Nickel Socket Dimmers are generally easy to operate, energy-efficient, and capable of extending the bulb life.
• Fan Regulator – Fan regulators are an important component that allows the user to increase or decrease the speed of a fan device according to requirements. Fan regulators are available in 4-step and 5-step speed options and are very easy to operate and install.
• Motor Starter Switch – Also known as motor protection circuit breakers (MPCBs) or manual motor protectors (MMPs), manual motor starters are electromechanical protection devices for main circuits. They are used to switch motors ON/OFF manually and provide fuseless protection against short-circuit, overload, and phase failures.
• Power Unit – Power units are combinations of black switches and sockets and are usually used in heavy load electrical equipment. They are available in various current ratings and are simple to install and operate. 

Black Nickel Switches

• Single-Pole Black Nickel Switches – The black nickel switches are the basic on/off which are used to break the connection between two different terminals. These black nickel switches are also known as the toggle switches and are the most common type of switch you can find. They control one fixture from a single location.
• Double-Pole Black Nickel Switches – Double-pole black nickel switches control two fixtures without the need for installing a separate box. These black nickel switches are also easy to operate, replace, and install.
• Three-Way Black Nickel Switches – Three-way black nickel switches are used to control lights with two switches and do not have an on/off position as the single-pole black nickel switches do. This is why three-way black nickel switches are often used in domestic spaces such as staircases, and large rooms, and to access fixtures without hassle.
• Four-Way Black Nickel Switches – These four-way black nickel switch configurations are used to control lights with three or more switches. Four-way black nickel switches are often used in big halls or large rooms where they can be easily accessed to switch on/off light fixtures. Unlike single pole black nickel switches, they do not have an on/off position.
• Multi-Location Black Nickel Switches – Multi-location black nickel switches are an interconnection of two or more electrical switches that are used to control an electrical load from more than one location. These multi-location black nickel switches can be used in large spaces and hallways where multiple controls can add to both safety and convenience.
