The double-pole switch isolates both live and neutral lines when off, providing enhanced safety for high-draw appliances compared to single-pole switching. The screwless cover plate clips onto a separate metal sub-frame, leaving no visible fixings on the wall once installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for residential, hospitality and office environments where darker metallic finishes are preferred, the smoked bronze tone sits between gunmetal and aged brass, complementing both warm and cool colour palettes. The 4.3mm projection from the wall keeps the socket profile low, and the built-in gasket behind the plate provides a clean seal against the wall surface. The 13A rating handles standard UK appliance loads up to 3,120W per outlet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe faceplate is constructed from premium-grade steel with a smoked bronze PVD coating that resists fingerprints and surface wear better than painted or lacquered finishes. The black insert hides the back of the cover plate and defines the edge of the outlet, maintaining visual clarity when no plug is inserted. Twin earth terminals simplify wiring, and the socket is certified to BS 1363:2 for compliance with UK electrical safety regulations.\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\u003e87.5 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\u003e4.3 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMin.
