Description

This Knightsbridge 13A 1-gang unswitched floor socket features a spring-loaded brushed brass cover that conceals a single 13A outlet when not in use. The cover lifts open when a plug is inserted and springs shut when the plug is removed, protecting the socket from dust, debris and accidental contact in floor-level installations. The white insert behind the brass cover provides contrast and frames the outlet aperture.

Designed for commercial and residential floor installations including offices, hotels, conference rooms and open-plan living spaces, the socket fits a standard 35mm minimum back box depth recessed into the floor. The 30mm recessed depth and 3mm projection above floor level mean the closed socket sits nearly flush with the floor surface, reducing trip hazards in high-traffic areas. The unswitched configuration allows the outlet to remain permanently live, suited to floor positions where switching from the socket itself is not required.

The brushed brass finish is applied to premium-grade steel construction, providing a hardwearing surface that resists scuffing from foot traffic and wheeled furniture. The IP20 rating confirms protection against solid objects larger than 12.5mm, appropriate for internal dry-location floor use. The 13A rating handles standard UK appliance loads up to 3,120W, and the socket includes an earth terminal for safe grounding. Knightsbridge backs this floor socket with a 25-year warranty.

Frequently Asked

What back box depth is required for floor installation?

A 35mm minimum back box depth is needed. The socket recesses 30mm into the floor and projects just 3mm above floor level when the spring-loaded cover is closed, reducing trip hazards.

How does the spring-loaded cover work?

The brushed brass cover is held closed by an internal spring. When a plug is inserted, the cover lifts open. When the plug is removed, the spring pulls the cover shut automatically, protecting the socket from dust and debris.

Is this socket switched or unswitched?

This is an unswitched socket, meaning the outlet remains permanently live. It is suited to floor positions where switching from the socket itself is not required, with control typically provided at a wall switch or consumer unit instead.

Can this be used in bathrooms or wet areas?

No. The IP20 rating confirms protection against solid objects only, not moisture. This floor socket is designed for internal dry locations such as offices, hotel rooms and residential living spaces, not bathrooms or outdoor areas.
