The Trendi Switch 1 Gang USB Switched Plug Socket is an ideal choice for homeowners and interior designers seeking a modern, clutter-free power solution. This socket integrates a standard 13A switched outlet with dual 2.1A USB ports, allowing you to charge mobile devices without occupying the main power outlet. While its slim, screwless 9mm profile provides a sophisticated finish, users should note that it requires a minimum 47mm depth back box, which may necessitate an upgrade from shallower standard electrical boxes.

Yes, the 2100mA output is shared between the two USB ports, allowing you to charge two devices simultaneously.
The product requires a 35mm installation depth, but a 47mm back box is recommended for easier wiring and a flush fit.
The ports provide a standard 2.1A output, which is suitable for standard charging but may be slower than dedicated high-wattage fast chargers.
No, this product is strictly designed for indoor domestic use and should not be exposed to moisture or extreme environmental conditions.
Yes, provided your existing electrical wall box meets the depth requirements of 47mm or deeper.
As a screwless model, the faceplate clips on for a clean look, though internal mounting screws are included for securing the base to the back box.
Ensure the main power switch for the socket is toggled to the ON position and check that the USB cable is fully seated in the port.
Check the back box depth; if it is less than 47mm, the wiring or the unit itself may be preventing a flat fit. Consider installing a deeper back box.
Verify the appliance plug is secure and test the appliance in another known working outlet to rule out a device fault.
Installation should always be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure safety and compliance with building regulations. The unit requires an installation depth of 35mm to 47mm. For the best physical fit, a 47mm or deeper back box is highly recommended. Compatibility is limited to standard indoor domestic AC supplies of 220-250V. For maintenance, keep the faceplate looking new by wiping it with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents or solvents, as these may damage the glossy finish or the electrical components inside the socket.
