FAQs

What is the main advantage of the screwless design?

The screwless design offers a cleaner, more modern aesthetic by hiding all mounting screws for a seamless appearance on your wall.

Can I replace my old sockets with these without rewiring?

Yes, if you are replacing an existing 2-gang switched socket with a compatible back box, you can typically swap them out without needing to rewire. Ensure power is off and wires are connected correctly.

What material are the sockets made from?

The sockets are made from high-quality, fireproof ABS plastic for durability and safety, with a chrome-finished rocker switch.

Is this pack available in other colors?

This specific product is a 7-pack in Plum Purple. Please check the Trendi Switch range for availability in other colors.

How do I clean the Plum Purple finish?

Clean the socket with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning materials that could damage the finish.

Are these sockets switched or unswitched?

These are switched plug sockets, meaning each socket has an individual rocker switch to turn power on or off.

What is the size of the wall plate?

These are double-sized (2-gang) wall plates, designed to fit in the space of a standard double socket.

Troubleshooting

Socket not providing power

Verify that the power is restored at the breaker. Double-check all wire connections are secure and correctly placed (Live, Neutral, Earth). Ensure the switch on the socket is in the 'on' position.

Plate not clicking into place

Ensure the mounting posts from the back box are clear and the socket is correctly aligned. Check for any obstructions on the wall or the back of the plate.

Intermittent power supply

Check for loose wire connections. Ensure the socket is not overloaded, and consider if the circuit is adequate for the connected devices.

Rocker switch feels stiff or loose

This may indicate an internal issue. If the product is new, contact the retailer for a replacement. If installed, ensure the plate is securely attached.
