This 2-gang 13 amp switched plug socket is designed for indoor domestic power supply applications, offering a modern, screwless artistic look in a sleek grey finish. Its primary benefit is providing a stylish and compliant electrical connection for everyday use. A key consideration is its single-pole switching, which may not be suitable for all earthing requirements. Key features include a glossy finish, tactile buttons, and compliance with BS EN 1363 safety standards.

Ensure the appliance plug is fully inserted. Check if the switch is in the 'on' position. Verify the circuit breaker or fuse for the relevant circuit has not tripped. If the problem persists, consult a qualified electrician.
Ensure there are no obstructions around the switch. If dirt is suspected, clean the area gently with a dry brush. If the issue continues, professional inspection may be required.
Immediately turn off the power supply at the consumer unit and do not use the socket. Contact a qualified electrician for an urgent inspection and repair.
Setup: Installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician in accordance with current wiring regulations. The socket requires a 146 x 85mm mounting area with a 15mm installation depth. Ensure the power supply is isolated before commencing any installation.
Compatibility: This socket is designed for 220/250V AC mains power. It is compatible with standard 13A UK plugs. Note that it does *not* require an earth connection and is single-pole switched, meaning it only breaks the live conductor. It is intended for indoor domestic power supply use.
Care: To clean the glossy grey faceplate, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, which could damage the finish. Ensure the socket is switched off and unplugged (if possible) before cleaning. Periodically check for any signs of damage.
