The white thermoset resin plate carries antimicrobial properties tested to ISO 22196:2011, reducing microbial growth on the surface between cleaning cycles. The dual-pole switching isolates both live and neutral when the socket is turned off, providing additional safety over single-pole designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for schools, healthcare facilities, hospitality and high-traffic commercial environments where hygiene is a priority, the socket features screw cap covers that hide the fixing screws for a cleaner wall finish. The easy-top access terminals speed up installation by allowing cables to be inserted from above rather than requiring side-entry terminations. The socket fits a standard 25-35mm back box depth depending on cable volume, or can be surface-mounted using a Knightsbridge CU1800 surface box (sold separately).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 7mm plate depth and gently rounded edges reduce snag points and make the socket easier to wipe down during routine cleaning. The 146mm width and 86mm height match standard UK double-gang dimensions. The twin earth terminals accommodate ring final circuits and allow proper earthing of metal back boxes. The white finish integrates into painted walls, healthcare environments and modern interiors where a neutral aesthetic is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\" style=\"width: 100.036%; height: 274.4px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 34.4496%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 63.0906%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e86mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 34.4496%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 63.0906%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e146mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 34.4496%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 63.0906%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e32.6mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 34.4496%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eProjection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 63.0906%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e11.4mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 34.4496%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eRecessed Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 63.0906%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003e21.2mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 34.4496%; height: 19.6px;\"\u003eMin.

When two devices are plugged in, the available current is split between them. For optimal charging performance with modern fast-charge devices, use certified USB cables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat back box depth is required?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA minimum 25mm back box depth is required, with 35mm recommended when accommodating ring final circuit cables or where multiple cables enter the box. For surface mounting, use Knightsbridge CU1800 surface box (sold separately).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the antimicrobial treatment do?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe thermoset resin plate is treated with an antimicrobial agent tested to ISO 22196:2011, which reduces microbial growth on the surface between cleaning cycles.

The screw caps hide the fixing screws and can be removed to access the screws for dismounting the socket during redecorating. Once painting is complete, the caps can be replaced to restore the clean aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Knightsbridge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51391581618443,"sku":"CU9948","price":15.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/1544164_68fd6635-c5e7-413a-b206-0d869a4081f9.jpg?v=1747069256","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/13a-2-gang-dp-switched-socket-dual-usb-4-8a-white-antimicrobial","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
