The dual-pole switching isolates both live and neutral lines when the socket is switched off, providing additional safety for high-draw appliances and overnight isolation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for residential, hospitality and care home installation, the socket fits a standard 25-35mm back box depth depending on wiring conditions and uses captive screw terminals with top access for faster first-fix wiring. Twin earth terminals allow ring-main continuation without external junction boxes. The 13A rating handles standard UK appliance loads up to 3,120W per outlet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe white thermoset resin construction provides a durable, impact-resistant finish that resists yellowing over time. The 7mm rounded edge profile softens the wall transition compared to flat-plate designs and sits comfortably in both traditional and contemporary interiors. The integrated dual USB charger delivers a combined 5V DC 3.1A output across both ports, sufficient for overnight phone charging or powering USB desk accessories without occupying one of the 13A outlets.\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\u003e86 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e146 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProjection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMin.
