Modern design where individual switches/sockets "snap" into a frame. No visible screws on the plate. Highly flexible—you can swap a 6A socket for a USB charger easily.
Old-style switches screwed directly onto a wooden or plastic board. These are cheaper but lack child-safety shutters and have exposed screws that can rust or cause shocks.
The visible outer frame. Available in 1-module to 18-module sizes. Materials range from plastic to glass and wood.
The box installed inside the wall before plastering. Metal (GI) boxes are more durable, while plastic boxes are rust-proof.
