Overview

The Vimar Idea is a USB socket outlet for the Idea modular wiring range, built as a 1-module insert with screw terminals and a flush-mounted body. It measures 24.80 x 50.10 x 41.30 mm, has IP20 protection, and uses a halogen-free thermoplastic housing with a matt finish.

This insert is meant for protected interior installations where you want a clean USB connection point within a Vimar Idea frame or panel layout. On board, that usually means cabin spaces, a chart table, or a helm area that stays out of direct spray. The built-in strain relief also helps keep the cable connection more stable where vibration is part of normal use.

Key features

• 1-module insert for Vimar Idea modular installations
• Screw-terminal connection for fixed wiring
• Flush-mounted format with a 24.80 x 50.10 x 41.30 mm body
• IP20-rated front for dry, protected interior locations
• Halogen-free thermoplastic construction with matt surface finish
• Built-in strain relief at the terminal side

Variants

This product is available in two color configurations.

Across both versions, the format stays the same: 1-module Idea insert, screw terminals, flush mounting, IP20 protection, and the same overall dimensions. The difference between the variants is the visible front color.

• VM16368.B, Color Ivory. This lighter finish works well with pale trim pieces and lighter interior switch layouts.
• VM16368, Color Gray. This darker finish sits more naturally with gray plates, darker panels, or interiors with a more muted look.

Compatibility and fit

This insert is intended for Vimar Idea modular device arrangements and occupies one module. It suits boats and refits that already use the Idea series and want to keep the same look and module format across the electrical panel or cabin switching points.

Before ordering, check the series on the existing frame and confirm that the installation point is a protected indoor location. This is not the right choice for exposed exterior panels or any mounting position that sees regular washdown or open-weather use.

Installation and onboard use

The flush-mounted body is better suited to enclosed consoles, cabin walls, and other finished surfaces where a modular switch insert is the right format. Screw terminals make more sense where the wiring is fixed in place, and the compact body helps when space behind the plate is limited but still needs to be checked against the available depth.
