Description
This Knightsbridge 13A 1-gang switched socket integrates four USB-A charging ports into a brushed chrome raised edge faceplate with a white insert. The USB array delivers a combined 5.1A output, with one port dedicated to 2.1A for tablet-speed charging and three ports sharing 3A for smartphones and accessories. The 13A outlet itself is switched and rated for standard UK appliance loads up to 2,990W.
Designed for hospitality, co-working spaces, hotel rooms and high-use residential areas such as kitchens and hallways, the socket allows multiple devices to charge from a single wall position without needing separate plug adaptors. The raised edge metal plate sits 10.5mm from the wall surface, with a gasket between the plate and the wall that creates a defined border and reduces dust ingress. The white insert behind the plate apertures contrasts with the brushed chrome finish, clearly marking each outlet and USB port.
The 430 stainless steel plate and matching metal rocker switches provide durability in commercial and domestic settings where plastic faceplates scratch or discolour over time. The brushed chrome finish is a cool-toned metal that pairs with modern interiors, stainless steel kitchen appliances and grey or white colour schemes. The socket fits a standard 25mm minimum back box depth and complies with BS1363-2 for UK socket outlets, plus EMC regulations and ErP energy efficiency requirements.

Frequently Asked
What is the USB charging output?
The socket provides a total 5.1A USB output across four USB-A ports. One port delivers up to 2.1A for faster tablet charging, while the remaining three ports share 3A between them, suitable for smartphones and smaller devices. All ports output 5V DC.
What back box depth is needed?
A 25mm minimum back box depth is required for safe installation. The raised edge plate adds 10.5mm plate depth, with a total projection of 15.7mm from the wall when fitted.
Is the raised edge plate removable for decorating?
The raised edge plate is screw-fixed directly to the back box using terminal screws. It can be removed for redecorating, but the socket must be isolated at the consumer unit before removing the faceplate as the terminals are live when energised.
