The dual USB ports share a 5V DC 4.0A output (maximum 20W combined), allowing two devices to charge simultaneously from a single socket position without blocking the 13A outlets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for kitchens, home offices, living rooms and bedrooms where modern device charging is needed alongside traditional appliances, the socket fits a standard 25-35mm back box depending on wiring conditions. The square edge design sits flush to the wall with a built-in gasket that creates a defined edge and hides minor wall imperfections around the mounting plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe brushed chrome finish provides a cooler metallic tone than polished chrome, with horizontal brushing that softens reflections and resists fingerprints. The white insert behind the chrome faceplate provides contrast and hides the back of the mounting plate. Each 13A outlet carries single-pole switching, isolating the live line when switched off while the neutral remains connected.\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\u003e89 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e149.3 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProjection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMin.

When both ports are used simultaneously, the available power is divided between the two devices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's the difference between SP and DP switching?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSP (single-pole) switching isolates the live line when the socket is switched off, while the neutral remains connected. DP (double-pole) switching isolates both live and neutral, providing additional safety for high-draw appliances. For standard residential use, SP switching is sufficient.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan certified USB cables affect charging speed?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
