The Varilight Classic 2-gang socket in Georgian Brass is designed for homeowners and interior designers who prioritize a traditional aesthetic without sacrificing modern convenience. This unit provides a seamless blend of classic style and 20W fast-charging capabilities, making it ideal for bedrooms, kitchens, or home offices. The primary caveat is that it requires a standard depth wall box and a neutral understanding of domestic electrical wiring to install safely.

Yes, standard electrical regulations require proper neutral and earth connections for the USB charging circuitry to function.
Yes, the USB-A and USB-C ports can be used simultaneously, though the 20W power output will be shared between them.
Yes, this is designed for a standard 2-gang UK wall box installation.
The 20W output is primarily designed for phones, tablets, and accessories; most modern laptops require higher wattage chargers.
Use a soft, dry lint-free cloth. Do not use polishes or household cleaners as they can damage the decorative finish.
No, the white inserts are part of the permanent construction of the socket and should not be removed.
Ensure the socket is switched on and check that the charging cable is functional. Test the device with a known-working wall adapter to rule out the device itself.
Check the mounting screws are tightened securely into the wall box. If the box is recessed too deeply, use mounting spacers.
If multiple devices are plugged into both USB ports, the 20W output is shared. Try charging only one device at a time for maximum speed.
Always ensure the mains power is isolated at the consumer unit before beginning installation. This device is designed for a standard 2-gang mounting box. When connecting, follow the standard wiring color codes for your region, ensuring the Earth wire is properly secured to the back box terminal. To maintain the Georgian Brass finish, clean the front plate only with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or chemical sprays, as these can strip the finish and damage the electrical components.
