Description

The Knightsbridge 13A 1-gang DP switched socket pairs a polished chrome screwless faceplate with a white insert, providing a single 13A outlet rated for standard UK appliance loads up to 3,120W. The double-pole switching isolates both live and neutral lines when the socket is switched off, offering additional safety over single-pole designs when disconnecting high-draw appliances.

Designed for residential, commercial and hospitality installation, the socket fits a 25mm minimum back box depth and uses a screwless cover plate that clips onto a separate metal sub-frame. This means no visible screws or fixings on the wall once installed, giving a cleaner finish than traditional screw-fixed plates. The white insert recedes behind the chrome faceplate when a plug is connected, keeping focus on the polished metal surround.

The polished chrome finish provides a bright reflective surface that pairs well with modern, minimalist and chrome-accented interiors. The premium-grade steel construction is rated to BS 1363:2 and carries an IP20 rating for dry indoor use. Twin earth terminals simplify the wiring process during installation, and the built-in gasket creates a tight seal against the wall surface to prevent gaps around the plate edge.

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.

What does DP switching mean?

DP stands for double-pole switching. When the socket is switched off, both the live and neutral lines are isolated, providing additional safety when disconnecting high-draw appliances compared to single-pole switches that only isolate the live line.

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 other finishes are available in this range?

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