FAQs

What are the dimensions of the plate?

The plate dimensions are 146mm (length) x 94mm (width) with a thickness of 4mm.

Can this be installed in a kitchen or bathroom?

Installation in kitchens and bathrooms requires careful consideration of local electrical regulations regarding water ingress and RCD protection. Consult a qualified electrician to ensure compliance.

What is the amp rating for each socket?

Each of the two sockets is rated at 13A.

Does this product come with installation instructions?

While installation requires a qualified electrician, basic setup and care guidelines are provided. The installer will have specific technical requirements.

What type of finish does the brushed brass have?

It features a plated and brushed finish designed to create a warm aesthetic, ideal for period styles.

How do I clean the brushed brass surface?

Use a soft, dry cloth for regular cleaning. For more persistent marks, a slightly damp cloth followed by immediate drying is recommended. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Is this a sealed, waterproof unit?

The product is designed for floor installation but may not be fully waterproof. Sealing during installation is crucial, especially in areas prone to spills. Check specific water ingress protection ratings if needed.

Troubleshooting

Socket not providing power.

Check the main power supply to the property. Ensure the circuit breaker for this socket has not tripped. Verify all internal wiring connections were made correctly by the installer.

Brushed brass finish tarnishing.

This is unlikely with a quality plated finish. Ensure only a soft, dry cloth is used for cleaning. If tarnishing occurs, contact the manufacturer for advice on restoration or warranty.

Plate not sitting flush with the floor.

This indicates an installation issue. The recess may not be correctly sized, or the mounting mechanism is not secure. The installer will need to rectify this.
