Description

The Knightsbridge 13A 1-gang DP switched socket features a brushed chrome screwless faceplate with a black insert behind the outlet aperture. The double-pole switch isolates both live and neutral lines when switched off, providing additional safety over single-pole switching for high-draw appliances like kettles, heaters and power tools.

Designed for residential, hospitality and office installation, the socket fits a standard 25mm minimum back box depth and uses a screwless cover plate that clips onto a separate metal sub-frame. This means there are no visible screws or fixings on the wall once installed, giving a cleaner finish than traditional screw-fixed plates. The 13A rating handles standard UK appliance loads up to 3,120W per outlet.

The brushed chrome finish on premium grade steel provides a contemporary metallic accent that pairs well with modern, industrial and minimalist interiors. The horizontal brushed texture softens reflections under daylight and conceals minor surface marks better than polished finishes. The black insert behind the chrome faceplate hides the back of the cover plate and gives a defined edge to the outlet aperture. The socket includes twin earth terminals and an integrated gasket to achieve a tight fit against the wall surface, minimising gaps around the plate edge. Knightsbridge backs this socket with a 25-year warranty.

Frequently Asked

What back box depth is required?

A 25mm minimum back box depth is needed for safe installation. The screwless cover plate adds approximately 4.3mm of projection from the wall once fitted.

Is the screwless plate removable for redecorating?

Yes. The cover plate clips onto a separate metal sub-frame fixed to the back box. The cover can be removed for painting around the socket and re-clipped without re-wiring.

What does the DP switch mean?

DP stands for double-pole. When switched off, the switch isolates both the live and neutral lines, providing additional safety compared to single-pole switches that only isolate the live line. This is particularly useful for high-draw appliances.

What other finishes are available in this range?

Knightsbridge produces this style in a range of finishes including polished chrome, polished brass, antique brass, matt black and white. Use the search function or filters to find other variants in stock at Niori.
