ABB Tango electrical outlet and switches

The product shown in the image is from the Tango design line, which is one of the most iconic and popular series of electrical wiring accessories in Middle Europe, particularly in the Czech Republic. It consists of a French-type power socket and two light switches (one single and one double) mounted in a triple horizontal frame.

Originally developed by the company Elektro-Praga Jablonec nad Nisou, the Tango line was launched in 1995 and became a massive commercial success due to its timeless ergonomic design and high-quality plastic construction. The manufacturing facility in Jablonec nad Nisou continues to produce these components today under the ownership of the global technology giant ABB.

ABB (Asea Brown Boveri) is the ultimate owner, having integrated the Czech manufacturer into its global portfolio. The Tango series remains a staple in residential and commercial electrical installations across the region, maintained by ABB's local subsidiary, ABB s.r.o., which oversees both production and distribution for the Czech and Slovak markets.
