FAQs

Are these sockets suitable for outdoor use?

No, these sockets are designed for indoor use only and are not weather-rated.

Do I need a qualified electrician to install these?

Yes, electrical work should be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure compliance with local safety regulations.

What are the dimensions of the faceplate?

The faceplate measures 86mm x 145mm, which is the standard size for a 2-gang UK socket.

Can I use these for 13A high-drain appliances?

Yes, these sockets are fully rated for 13A operation.

Does this pack include backboxes?

No, this pack contains only the socket units; backboxes must be purchased separately.

Are these double-pole or single-pole?

These are double-pole, meaning they switch both the live and neutral lines.

Troubleshooting

Socket feels loose in the wall

Check that the mounting screws are properly tightened to the backbox. If the backbox itself is loose, secure it to the studwork or masonry.

Switch is stiff or doesn't click

Ensure the faceplate is not overtightened against the wall, which can warp the casing and interfere with the switch rocker.

Power not reaching the device

Verify all wiring connections at the rear terminals and confirm that the circuit breaker for that zone is in the 'on' position.
