Description
This is a single 13A power point on a screwless pink plate, with a chrome insert and a chrome rocker switch. The face is smooth and unbroken, with no visible screw heads to interrupt the colour, so the pink reads as a clean block against the wall. The plate is square and compact, and the switch sits to one side of the pin apertures. The chrome catches the light and lifts the pink, which stops it reading as flat plastic.
We stock it for rooms where the wiring accessories are part of the scheme rather than something to hide: a kitchen with painted cabinetry, a child's bedroom, a small studio, a hallway in a bold paint. It suits anyone replacing a tired white plate who wants one small thing on the wall to be cheerful. A single socket keeps things calm where a double would crowd a narrow return of wall, behind a bedside table or beside a desk. Being switched, you can cut the power at the plate rather than tugging the plug out each time. We like it in laundry rooms and craft corners too, anywhere a bit of colour is welcome.
The plate is moulded in polycarbonate, which is tough, light and happy to take a strong colour. It is meant for dry indoor rooms on a household supply, away from splashes and steam. For cleaning, wipe the plate with a soft damp cloth and dry it straight after; solvents and cream cleaners will haze the surface. The square plate measures 88mm across, so it lines up with other standard-size accessories on the same wall. It carries a ten year warranty. We would keep switches and any other sockets nearby in the same pink so the colour looks deliberate.

Frequently Asked
Is this socket switched?
Yes. It has a rocker switch beside the pin apertures, so you can turn the power off at the plate instead of unplugging the appliance.
What is the plate made from, and how big is it?
The plate is moulded polycarbonate with a chrome insert. It measures 88mm by 88mm and weighs around 0.105kg.
How should I clean the pink finish?
A soft damp cloth, dried off straight away, is all it needs. Avoid solvents, cream cleaners and abrasive pads, as they will dull the colour and mark the chrome.
Can I use it in a bathroom or outside?
No. It is rated IP20, which means dry indoor rooms only, so keep it away from bathroom zones, sinks and anywhere exposed to weather.
How many appliances will it take?
One. It is a single 13A socket, which makes it a tidy choice where a double plate would be too wide for the space.
Does it come with a warranty?
It carries a ten year warranty from the manufacturer.
