Description
The Knightsbridge 13A 2-gang SP switched socket adds one USB-A and one USB-C charging port behind a brushed chrome screwless faceplate with a grey insert and matching metal rockers. The single-pole switching isolates the live line when the socket is switched off, providing standard residential switching for everyday appliance loads.
Designed for residential, hospitality and office installation, the socket fits a standard 25-35mm back box depth depending on wiring conditions 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. The dual USB ports share a 5V DC 4.0A output, suitable for charging smartphones, tablets and other USB-powered devices simultaneously.
The brushed chrome finish provides a cool metallic accent that pairs well with contemporary, industrial and minimalist interiors. The grey insert behind the chrome faceplate hides the back of the cover plate and gives a defined edge to each outlet aperture. The screwless design includes a built-in gasket for a flush finish against the wall, minimising gaps and dust ingress around the plate edge. The premium-grade steel construction is rated Class I with an IP20 rating for indoor use.

Frequently Asked
What back box depth is required?
A 25-35mm back box depth is needed depending on wiring conditions. The screwless cover plate adds approximately 4.3mm of projection from the wall once fitted.
What's the USB charging output?
The dual USB ports share a 5V DC 4.0A output. The USB-A and USB-C ports draw from this shared output, suitable for charging two devices simultaneously at standard charging speeds.
Is the screwless plate removable for redecorating?
Yes. The cover plate clips onto a separate metal sub-frame fixed to the back box. The cover can be removed for painting around the socket and re-clipped without re-wiring.
