This AET Double Plug Socket is designed for homeowners and tech enthusiasts seeking convenient power and charging solutions. Its key benefit is the integration of two 13 Amp sockets with two USB charging ports, offering a neat way to power appliances and charge mobile devices simultaneously. A minor caveat is that the USB ports share a single 2.1A output, which may lead to slower charging for two devices at once compared to dedicated chargers. This classical style socket features a polished chrome silver effect mirror finish with a white insert and plastic rocker switches, adding a touch of elegance to any room while providing versatile power options.

This is a standard 13 Amp socket and requires standard household wiring. However, installation must be performed by a qualified electrician.
Check if the circuit breaker has tripped or if a fuse has blown. Ensure the plug is correctly inserted into the socket. Verify that the main power supply is on. If the issue persists, contact a qualified electrician.
Ensure the device is compatible with the USB 5V/2.1A output. Try unplugging and replugging the USB cable. Test with a different USB cable and device to rule out cable or device issues. Confirm the socket is receiving power.

A slightly warm socket during heavy use is normal. However, if it feels excessively hot, switch off the power at the breaker immediately and have it inspected by an electrician.
Setup: This socket requires installation by a qualified electrician, adhering to local wiring regulations. Ensure the power is switched off at the fuse box before beginning installation. Connect the live, neutral, and earth wires to the appropriate terminals on the socket.

Care: To maintain the polished chrome finish, clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can scratch the surface. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and then wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth. Ensure the area around the socket is kept dry.
