This Click Scolmore Deco double socket is designed for homeowners and renters seeking a modern, convenient power solution that integrates traditional sockets with USB charging. Its key benefit is providing two 13A outlets alongside two USB ports (Type A and C) in a single, stylish unit, reducing the need for separate chargers. A potential caveat is that the combined USB output might not support charging multiple high-power devices simultaneously at maximum speed.

The Type A port offers 5V DC 2.4A, and the Type C port offers 5V DC 3A. The total combined output capability should be considered when charging multiple devices.
No, this socket is designed for indoor use only and is not weather-rated.
This model does not include built-in surge protection.
It includes one USB Type A port and one USB Type C port.
If you are comfortable with basic electrical wiring and replacing a standard socket, installation is straightforward as it fits into standard back boxes. However, always ensure the power is off at the mains and consult a qualified electrician if you have any doubts.
Use a soft, dry cloth for dusting. For smudges, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Please refer to the product packaging or manufacturer's website for specific warranty details, as warranty periods can vary.
Check that the main power supply to the socket is on. Ensure the USB device is compatible and not drawing excessive power that exceeds the port's rating. If the issue persists, the internal USB circuitry may require professional inspection.
Verify that the circuit breaker for the socket has not tripped. Check the wiring connections to ensure they are secure and correctly fitted to the terminals. If wiring is confirmed correct, the socket may be faulty and require replacement.
The USB ports share a combined output. Charging multiple devices simultaneously, especially high-demand ones, may result in slower speeds than using a dedicated high-output charger. Try charging only one device or ensure the device supports the 2.4A or 3A charging standard.
Ensure the main socket body is securely fixed to the back box. The outer decorative faceplate should then be clipped or screwed on according to the Deco range's design, ensuring a snug fit.
Setup
This socket is designed to replace existing standard UK double sockets. Ensure the power is turned off at the mains before attempting installation. The unit fits into a standard single or double depth back box. Connect the live, neutral, and earth wires to the appropriate terminals for the 13A sockets. The USB ports are powered directly and do not require separate wiring.
