FAQs

Can I install this socket myself?

Electrical installations in the UK should be performed by a qualified professional to ensure safety and compliance with regulations.

Does this socket support USB-A devices?

No, this specific model features two USB-C ports. You would need a USB-C to Lightning or USB-C to USB-C cable.

What is the maximum output for the USB ports?

The USB-C ports provide a combined, shared output of 4.8A.

Is the finish prone to showing fingerprints?

The matt black finish is specifically designed to resist smudges and fingerprints, keeping the unit looking pristine.

Does it fit a standard back box?

Yes, it is designed for a standard UK double-gang back box.

What does double-pole switching mean?

Double-pole switching disconnects both the live and neutral wires, providing a higher level of safety and isolation for appliances.

Troubleshooting

USB-C devices are charging slowly

Ensure that the total power draw of both devices does not exceed the 4.8A shared limit, or try charging a single device to see if speeds improve.

Socket plate feels loose

Check that the internal mounting chassis is firmly secured to the back box and that the clip-on faceplate is snapped into all four corners.

Pros and Cons

  • Modern, screwless aesthetic
  • Fingerprint-resistant surface
  • Dual-pole safety switching
  • Space-saving integrated design

Cons

  • Requires professional electrical installation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure compliance with UK building regulations. The unit requires a standard double-gang back box (ensure the box depth is adequate for the socket wiring). To maintain the finish, simply wipe the faceplate with a soft, dry cloth; avoid using abrasive cleaning agents or chemicals that could damage the matt black coating. Always ensure the circuit is isolated at the mains before attempting any inspection or cleaning.
