{"product_id":"13a-2-gang-dp-switched-socket-twin-earth-brushed-chrome-screwless-white-insert","title":"13A 2 Gang DP Switched Socket Twin Earth - Brushed Chrome Screwless (White Insert)","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Knightsbridge 13A 2-gang DP switched socket adds twin earth terminals behind a brushed chrome screwless faceplate with a white insert. The double-pole switching isolates both live and neutral lines when the socket is switched off, providing additional safety over single-pole switching for high-draw appliances. The twin earth terminals support installations where high-integrity earthing is required, typically in professional, laboratory or medical settings where earthing redundancy matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for residential, commercial and institutional installation, the socket fits a standard 25mm minimum back box depth and uses a screwless cover plate that clips onto a separate metal sub-frame. This means there are no visible screws or fixings on the wall once installed, giving a cleaner finish than traditional screw-fixed plates. The 13A rating handles standard UK appliance loads up to 3,120W per outlet, and the socket is certified to BS 1363:2.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe brushed chrome finish provides a neutral metallic accent that pairs well with modern, industrial and cool-toned contemporary interiors. The white insert behind the chrome faceplate hides the back of the cover plate and gives a defined edge to each outlet aperture. The premium-grade steel construction and brushed surface resist everyday wear, fingerprints and minor impacts better than polished finishes, making this socket suitable for high-traffic areas including offices, kitchens and hallways.\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\u003e147.5 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.
