This Trendi Switch 1 Gang USB Plug Socket in Sunset Orange is designed for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to modernize their electrical outlets with integrated USB charging. Its key benefit is combining a 13A power socket with dual USB ports, reducing the need for multiple adapters and decluttering spaces. A potential caveat is that it's a single-gang unit, meaning it replaces one standard UK power socket.

No, it is designed to replace a standard single-gang UK socket and uses the existing wiring. The screwless plate attaches without needing to screw it to the wall.
The socket is made from high-quality PC plastic designed to resist fading, even in direct sunlight.
The 2.1A total output is generally suitable for charging smartphones and smaller tablets. Laptops typically require higher wattage chargers and may charge slowly or not at all.

Wipe gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
Ensure the main power socket is switched on at the breaker. Verify that the device is connected correctly and that the total USB load does not exceed 2.1A. Try a different USB cable and device to rule out other issues.
Check the main power supply and ensure the circuit breaker for this socket is on. Inspect the wiring connections at the back of the socket to confirm they are secure.
Ensure the back of the faceplate and the surrounding wall area are clean and free of debris. Apply firm, even pressure to click the faceplate into place. For removal, use a flat-head screwdriver or a suitable tool to gently pry the edge away from the wall.
Setup: This socket is designed to replace an existing standard single-gang UK power socket. Ensure the power is switched off at the mains before attempting installation. Remove the old faceplate, connect the existing wires to the appropriate terminals, and then push the new screwless faceplate into place until it clicks securely. No additional wiring is needed for the plate itself.
Compatibility: This unit is compatible with standard UK single-gang backboxes. The 13A socket is suitable for most household appliances. The USB ports are Type-A and provide 5V DC with a combined output of 2.1A.
Care: Clean the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they may damage the glossy finish. The PC plastic is designed to resist fading from sunlight, but regular dusting will maintain its appearance.
