The unit accepts UK 2-pin shaver plugs and US-style 2-pin plugs, making it compatible with electric shavers, toothbrushes and similar low-power grooming devices that run on either voltage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt to IP41 rating with an integrated gasket, the socket protects against water splashes from any direction, meeting UK building regulations for bathroom zones 2 and 3. The flat plate sits just 2.5mm proud of the wall once fitted, giving a lower-profile finish than traditional raised plates. The polished chrome finish reflects light and pairs with chrome taps, towel rails and other bathroom fittings. The grey insert behind the plate defines the socket aperture and hides the back of the cover plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConstructed from premium-grade steel with an earth terminal, the unit fits a standard 47mm minimum back box depth and is certified to EN 61558 transformer safety standards. The socket includes an internal isolating transformer that allows it to safely handle both 115V and 230V devices on the same UK mains circuit. Knightsbridge backs the FP8900PCG with a 25-year warranty, reflecting the build quality and expected lifespan of the internal components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e147.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e87.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProjection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMin.

This means it can be fitted outside the immediate shower or bath enclosure, typically 600mm or more from a bath edge or basin rim. It cannot be installed in zones 0 or 1 (inside or directly above a bath or shower).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it work with both UK and US shaver plugs?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The socket accepts both UK 2-pin shaver plugs and US-style 2-pin plugs. The internal transformer automatically outputs either 115V or 230V depending on which socket is used, so devices designed for either voltage will operate safely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat back box depth is required?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA minimum 47mm back box depth is required to accommodate the internal transformer and wiring connections. The flat plate itself adds just 2.5mm projection from the wall once installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it power a hairdryer or heated styling tool?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The 20VA output is designed for low-power devices like electric shavers and toothbrushes. Hairdryers, straighteners and other high-wattage appliances require a standard 13A socket outlet and cannot be safely powered from a shaver socket.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Knightsbridge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45293834699019,"sku":"FP8900PCG","price":26.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/131558_6238d8b5-d07a-40a9-a959-a74c23fce148.jpg?v=1714664815","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/115v-230v-dual-voltage-shaver-socket-polished-chrome-grey-insert-flat-plate","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
