91689 — 16A 2 gang switched multi function socket with neon with USB (Type A+C)
Model: 91689 |Category:91 Range Screwless
The Elite Elegance 91689 is a 16A 2-gang switched multi function socket with USB Type A+C in the 91 Range, engineered by Zhejiang Tao’s Electric (est. 2000). Built around a UV-stable, flame-retardant polycarbonate panel (750 °C glow-wire) and the universal 2-gang flush wall box shared across the 91 Range. The SKU is registered in 40+ countries across the Middle East, Africa, Europe and SE Asia. ELITE ELEGANCE presents the 91689 — 16A 2-Gang Switched Multi Function Socket with USB (Type A+C), a versatile combination wall plate engineered for modern residential and commercial power access. Combining two multi-function sockets, two independent rocker switches, and USB-A plus USB-C fast charging in one elegant faceplate, it delivers controlled power and convenient charging without occupying multiple wall plates. It is an ideal solution for homes, offices, hotels, retail spaces, and light commercial installations where flexibility, safety, and clean aesthetics matter. Product Overview and Key Features The 91689 is a 16A switched multi-function socket with two gangs, each featuring a 3-pin multi-function aperture for flexible compatibility with commonly used plug profiles. Each socket is controlled by its own tactile rocker switch, allowing connected appliances to be switched on or off locally without unplugging. The faceplate also includes one USB-A and one USB-C charging port, with USB-C supporting up to 20W max and USB-A supporting up to 18W max. Key features include: 16A 2-Gang Multi-Function Socket: Two 3-pin multi-function apertures provide flexible compatibility with common plug types from one wall plate. Independent Switched Control: Two tactile rocker switches provide separate on/off control for each socket. USB Type A+C Charging: One USB-A and one USB-C port charge smartphones, tablets, and other USB devices. 20W Fast Charging: USB-C supports up to 20W max; USB-A supports up to 18W max. Premium PC Panel: UV-stable, flame-retardant polycarbonate with 750 °C glow-wire resistance, impact strength, and electrical insulation. 2-Gang Format: Fits standard 2-gang flush wall boxes for new builds, retrofits, and renovations. Safety-Focused Design: Protective socket architecture helps reduce the risk of accidental contact and foreign-object insertion. Installer-Friendly: Clearly labeled terminals and accessible wiring points support fast, secure installation. Design and Construction The 91689 is built around two precision multi-function socket modules that ensure secure plug retention and stable electrical contact. Each 3-pin aperture is arranged for intuitive use, while the USB-A and USB-C ports are positioned centrally for easy access. The faceplate is molded from durable, flame-retardant PC material, delivering a refined finish that resists discoloration, scratching, and everyday wear. The low-profile rocker switches and discreet port layout maintain a clean silhouette that blends with modern interiors. Its two-gang design suits kitchens, living rooms, hotel rooms, bedrooms, and office workstations. Performance and Charging Rated at 16A, the 91689 supports reliable power delivery for a broad range of devices. Internal conductive components maintain low contact resistance and reduce heat buildup under normal load. Each switch mechanism is engineered for repeated operation. The integrated USB charging module provides fast, convenient charging. The USB-C port supports up to 20W max, suitable for fast-charging compatible smartphones, tablets, and smaller USB-C devices. The USB-A port supports up to 18W max for legacy USB devices and accessories. Actual charging speed depends on the connected device, cable, and negotiated power profile. When both USB ports are used simultaneously, output may be shared according to device requirements and charging protocol. Installation and Compatibility Installation is straightforward for qualified electricians. The 91689 fits the standard 2-gang flush wall box used across the 91 Range, and its terminals are clearly marked for live, neutral, and earth connections. The two-gang footprint allows the outlet to replace existing plates without significant structural modification. For retrofit projects, it offers a practical upgrade path where multi-function socket access, independent local switching, and USB charging are required. Applications and Use Cases The ELITE ELEGANCE 91689 suits a wide range of settings. In residential environments, it provides flexible power for lamps, chargers, small kitchen appliances, entertainment systems, and cleaning equipment, while USB ports keep mobile devices charged. In commercial and hospitality spaces, it supports guest devices, office equipment, retail displays, and service areas where users may bring different plug types. In bedrooms, hotel rooms, offices, and study areas, the combined sockets, switches, and USB charging point reduce clutter and improve convenience. Safety and Compliance Safety is central to the 91689 design. The flame-retardant PC panel, secure internal contacts, and protective socket architecture support safe daily operation. The USB charging circuit is designed for stable, low-voltage output and everyday reliability. Installation must be carried out by a qualified electrician in accordance with local wiring regulations.
