Wall socket with child protection Viko by Panasonic 9210 5542, black, recessed power outlet

The Viko by Panasonic 9210 5542 recessed wall socket in black is a compact, safety-focused power outlet designed for standard electrical installations. It features built-in child protection shutters that reduce the risk of accidental contact with live contacts while providing a reliable connection for household appliances and electronic devices. The low-profile recessed design keeps plugs and cables close to the wall, helping to maintain a tidy appearance and reducing protrusion in high-traffic areas.

Advantages

The integrated child protection mechanism prevents objects from being inserted into the live contacts without an appropriate plug, increasing safety in homes and public spaces. The recessed frame minimizes exposed plug depth, which is useful for furniture placement and areas with limited clearance. Finished in black, the outlet offers a discreet look that complements modern interiors and hides marks from regular use. The construction is intended for conventional mounting in flush-mounted boxes and provides steady electrical contact for connected devices.

Suitable for

• Residential rooms, including living rooms, bedrooms and kitchens
• Children’s rooms and nurseries where enhanced safety is needed
• Public interiors such as waiting areas, corridors and reception rooms
• Installation behind furniture or in locations with limited clearance

Key specifications

• Finish: black

How to use

Install the recessed wall socket into a compatible flush-mounted electrical box according to local regulations and wiring standards. Ensure power is switched off at the circuit breaker before connecting supply conductors. After secure mounting and wiring, restore power and test the outlet using a suitable device or outlet tester to confirm proper grounding and live/neutral connection. To use the socket, insert an approved grounded plug until it engages with the shutters and contacts; the child protection shutters will open only when a proper plug is inserted.

Usage recommendations

Use a qualified electrician for installation and any maintenance. Regularly inspect the outlet for signs of wear or damage and avoid forcing incompatible plugs. In environments with high moisture or specific safety requirements, select outlets and installation methods that meet applicable local standards.
