The Knightsbridge 13A 1-gang DP switched socket combines a brushed chrome screwless faceplate with a grey insert behind the outlet aperture. The double-pole switching isolates both live and neutral lines when the socket is switched off, providing additional safety over single-pole designs for high-draw appliances and white goods.
Designed for residential and commercial 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. The brushed chrome finish provides a mid-tone metallic surface that pairs comfortably with both warm and cool interior palettes, while the 87.5mm square faceplate matches standard UK wiring accessory sizing. Twin earth terminals simplify the connection of multiple earth conductors during installation.
The grey insert sits behind the faceplate and becomes visible only when the socket is in use — when no plug is connected, the brushed chrome surface dominates. The premium-grade steel construction and 25-year warranty reflect Knightsbridge's positioning as a trade-grade electrical accessory manufacturer rather than a consumer decorative brand.

What back box depth is required?
A 25mm minimum back box depth is needed for safe installation. The screwless cover plate adds 4.3mm of projection from the wall once fitted.
What does DP switching mean?
DP stands for double-pole. When the switch is off, both the live and neutral lines are isolated, providing additional safety compared to single-pole switches that only break the live connection. This is particularly useful for high-draw appliances like kettles, irons and washing machines.
Is the screwless plate removable for redecorating?
Yes. The brushed chrome 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 other finishes are available in this range?
Knightsbridge produces this screwless flat plate style in multiple finishes including polished chrome, brushed brass, polished brass, antique brass, matt black and white. Use the search function or filters to find other variants in stock at Niori.
