FAQs

What is the main advantage of a twin coaxial socket?

A twin coaxial socket allows you to connect two separate coaxial devices or cables to a single point on the wall, ideal for scenarios where you have both terrestrial TV and satellite, or multiple satellite receivers.

What size wall box does this socket require?

This socket is designed to fit into a standard UK wall back box with a depth of 25mm to 35mm.

Is this socket suitable for all types of TV connections?

This socket is specifically for coaxial connections, typically used for terrestrial TV aerials and satellite dishes. It does not support HDMI, USB, or other data connections directly.

What does BS 1363 approval mean?

BS 1363 is a British Standard for plugs, socket-outlets, and adaptors. Approval signifies that the product has been tested and meets stringent safety and performance requirements for electrical accessories in the UK.

How do I clean and maintain the Satin / Brushed Brass finish?

Use a soft, damp cloth for cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials to preserve the finish. Regular dusting and occasional wiping with a damp cloth is usually sufficient.

What is included with the socket?

The product includes the Satin / Brushed Brass socket plate, colour-coded fixing screws, a plastic gasket, and full fitting instructions.

What is the warranty period for this product?

SE Home provides a 10 Year Guarantee on this product, offering long-term assurance of its quality and durability.

Troubleshooting

No signal on connected devices

Check that the coaxial cables are securely connected to the correct terminals on the socket and at the source (aerial/dish). Verify that the power to the TV/receiver is on and settings are correct. Ensure the back box is not obstructing connections.

Loose socket on the wall

Turn off power at the mains. Carefully tighten the fixing screws that secure the socket to the wall back box. Ensure the back box itself is firmly installed in the wall.

Damage to the brass finish

Clean the affected area gently with a soft, damp cloth. If the damage is significant, contact the manufacturer or a qualified electrician regarding repair or replacement options.
