Description
Deep, muted green across the faceplate, with a chrome insert and a rocker switch: this is a switched single socket rated at 13A, with two USB-A charging ports set below the pin holes. The plate is screwless, so the front reads as a flat panel with nothing breaking the surface. A neon indicator sits alongside the rocker and gives a small glow when the switch is on, handy in a room you walk into in the dark. The USB pair shares a 10W output, which suits a phone, an e-reader or a set of earbuds.
We would put this where a socket is on show rather than hidden behind furniture: a bedside table, a desk, the end of a kitchen run, a hall table where phones land at the end of the day. The green is dark enough to sit quietly against pale walls, and it comes into its own on a deeper paint colour or a papered finish. The charging ports mean a cable goes straight in, leaving the socket itself free for a lamp or a radio. It suits anyone smartening up a room where the plates were the last thing left in white plastic.
The body is moulded polycarbonate, light in the hand, with the chrome insert as the only contrast against the green. Wipe the plate with a barely damp cloth and dry it off afterwards; keep solvents, cream cleaners and furniture polish away from the moulding, as they will dull the finish. It is meant for use inside the home, on standard household mains, in rooms that stay dry. It carries a ten year warranty. If you are running several plates along one wall, keep the style consistent and let the colour do the work rather than mixing screwless with screwed faceplates.

Frequently Asked
How much charging power do the USB ports give?
The two USB-A ports share a 10W output between them, so charging is quicker with one device connected than with two.
Is the socket itself switched?
Yes. It has a rocker switch with a neon indicator, so you can isolate the socket without unplugging.
What size is the faceplate?
The plate measures 88mm square, with a plate style that sits flat and shows no screws on the front.
What is the plate made from?
Moulded polycarbonate in dark green, with a chrome insert. It is a light, hard-wearing plastic rather than a metal plate.
How should I clean it?
A soft cloth, barely damp, then dry. Avoid abrasive creams, solvents and polishes, which can mark the moulded surface.
Can I use it in a bathroom or outside?
No. It is rated for dry indoor rooms only, so keep it to bedrooms, kitchens, halls, offices and living spaces.
