This Soho Lighting 13A Switched Fused Connection Unit (FCU) Flex Outlet is designed for homeowners and electricians seeking an elegant and functional power connection point, particularly for appliances requiring a fused connection and isolation switch. Its key benefit is the blend of a warm, brushed brass finish with a screwless, seamless aesthetic that complements period or statement interiors, while effectively hiding fingerprints. A potential caveat is its specialized use as an FCU, rather than a standard socket.

An FCU provides a fused connection to an appliance and includes an onboard switch to isolate the appliance from the power supply. This offers enhanced safety for permanently wired appliances.
No, this is a specialized FCU designed for direct connection of appliances via flexible cable, not for plugging in standard portable devices.
The unit includes a moisture-resistant gasket, making it suitable for installations where a degree of moisture protection is needed, but always ensure it complies with relevant safety regulations for bathroom zones.
This unit is designed for a standard 13A fuse, as indicated by the product rating. Always use the correct fuse rating for the appliance being connected.
Clean gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, polishes, or solvents that could damage the finish.
The screwless design creates a seamless, uninterrupted aesthetic on the wall, contributing to a cleaner and more modern or elegant interior finish.
Typically, FCUs are supplied without a fuse, allowing the installer to fit the correct rating for the specific appliance. Please check the product packaging for confirmation.
Verify that the fuse in the unit is correctly rated and intact. Check all wiring connections are secure and that the isolation switch is in the 'on' position. Ensure the appliance itself is functioning.
Ensure the front plate has been correctly aligned and clipped into place. Check for any obstructions preventing a secure fit.
While brushed brass is durable, harsh cleaning agents can affect the finish. Use only a soft, damp cloth for cleaning. Minor marks can often be buffed out gently.
Setup:
This unit should be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with current wiring regulations. Ensure the power supply is isolated before commencing any installation work.
