Modular Wiring Accessories Cover All the Options

Date: 31 March 2012

PREMERA MIX, the completely new range of modular grid-based wiring accessories from Eaton’s Electrical Sector, offers exceptional versatility and convenience by combining the elements of a traditional grid range, including broad switches and power sockets, with voice and data connectivity options, and intelligent RF switch modules for use with Eaton’s wireless  modern home automation system.

This means that just one range of mounting plates is all that’s needed to cater for even the most complicated and demanding of applications, whatever combination of modules is needed.

The PREMERA MIX range includes mounting plates that can accommodate up to 24 modules in an almost unlimited range of combinations. Popular plate sizes are supplied complete with integral mounting frames and earthing facilities, which not only makes them fast and easy to install as fewer separate components are required, but also easier to order and stock. In addition, the larger mounting frames incorporate a quick removal feature for each bank of modules, which is a further aid to rapid and convenient wiring.

The voice and data modules in the PREMERA MIX range make it an ideal choice for domestic and commercial applications where unobtrusive facilities are needed for the connection of telephone and network services, while the RF switch modules further extend the versatility of the system by providing full compatibility with Eaton’s sophisticated xComfort range of wireless home automation products.

An additional benefit is that where both wireless and wired systems are used in the same premises, the same range of wiring accessories can be used for both systems, ensuring that an attractive uniform appearance is maintained for the whole installation.

The new PREMERA MIX modules are suitable for use not only with standard PREMERA MIX grid plates, but also with module plates from Eaton’s COPA range, which features clip-on decorative plastic and luxury metal fascias as well as COPA FIX, and with Eaton’s XTRA surface-mounted grid-plate products.
