This BG Double 13A Gloss White Socket (BG - 922DP) is designed for electricians and homeowners seeking enhanced safety and durability in their electrical installations. Its double-pole switching provides an extra layer of protection, while the robust urea material resists fading and scratches, maintaining a clean appearance over time. A potential consideration is the requirement for a 25mm deep back box, which might influence retro-fit installations.

Double pole switching disconnects both the live and neutral wires simultaneously, offering a higher level of safety by ensuring a complete isolation of the circuit when switched off.
This socket is designed for indoor use. Outdoor use would require a weather-rated socket.
This socket requires a 25mm deep back box. It is ideal for retro-fitting into existing installations where this depth is present.
Clean the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to preserve the anti-microbial properties and the gloss finish.
While rated at 13A, high-power appliances like ovens may require dedicated circuits and higher rated sockets depending on their specific power consumption. Always check appliance specifications and consult an electrician.
MPN stands for Manufacturer Part Number. 922DP is the unique identifier for this specific BG socket model.
Ensure the circuit breaker is on and that the socket is switched on. Check all wiring connections are secure and correct. If the issue persists, consult a qualified electrician.
If stiff, check for obstructions. If loose, the internal mechanism may be faulty. In either case, contact a qualified electrician for inspection or replacement.
While the urea material is resistant to fading, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals could cause discolouration. Clean gently with a damp cloth. If significant discolouration occurs, replacement may be necessary.
Setup: This socket is designed for easy installation. Ensure the power supply is isolated before beginning. The unit requires a 25mm deep back box. Connect the wires to the colour-coded inline terminals and secure them with the captive screws. The faceplate then snaps into place, and screw caps cover the fixing screws for a neat finish.
Compatibility: Compatible with standard 25mm deep back boxes and standard UK wiring systems. Rated for 13A circuits.
Care: Clean the socket using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, which can damage the gloss finish and anti-microbial properties. Disconnect power before cleaning.
