Black is the new IN

Legrand’s range of chic Ysalis switches and sockets - known for stylish aesthetics and pristine quality - is now available in black.

Ysalis wiring devices were launched locally in 2017, to meet growing demand for sophisticated, yet affordable fittings, with modern, safe and reliable control features.

These trendy fittings were previously available in white and champagne, but to keep abreast with every interior decorator’s dream, Legrand has just launched Ysalis devices in black, to perfectly suit the latest décor trends.

It’s no rumour that black is the new wow.

According to Legrand designers, black isn’t only spot-on for that special little evening dress, sports car or bow tie – black electrical fittings go a long way to transforming the ambience of homes, offices and hospitality projects.

For those in the know, black is classy, elegant and timeless. But not everything in life is black or white – Ysalis still also comes in champagne. It’s the charm of these carefully designed slim, curvy shaped 9mm profile plates and large rockers, that not only enhance the décor of any room, but also provide easy and convenient control of functions like lighting, fans and the television. These plates can also be fitted with fluorescent indictors on the switches for improved comfort and safety in the dark.

Users can choose different kinds of functionalities, including power sockets (RSA current standard and new standard), data, television and USB. The Ysalis range can be also perfectly adapted to Legrand trunking systems.

A big bonus is that Ysalis is suitable for new and existing installations. The modular design allows any configuration to be easily adapted, simply by changing a connection function or the colour of the plate, at any time. With this system, there is no damage to the wall to increase, remove or change the number of lighting points or connections – the same box and support frames are used to accommodate all modifications.

The Ysalis range, with compact mechanisms, also makes installation quick and easy for electrical installers, because there is more space in the back box for easy wiring. Data sockets are fitted with tool-less connectors, eliminating the need for punch down tools.

Legrand honours its commitment to continually meeting local demand, through the ongoing launch of new products, in line with current global trends. The company has made a substantial investment in research, development and design of Ysalis, to ensure all products comply with the necessary standards and regulations.

Ysalis is available throughout the country from Legrand and its extensive distributor network.
