Description
The Knightsbridge 13A 2-gang SP switched socket adds one USB-A and one USB-C charging port behind a matt black faceplate with rounded edges and matching black rockers. The single-pole switching isolates the live line when the socket is turned off, while the dual USB ports share a 5V 4.0A output for charging smartphones, tablets and other portable devices.
Designed for residential, hospitality and office installation, the socket fits a standard 25-35mm back box depending on wiring configuration. The rounded edge design incorporates a built-in gasket that sits between the faceplate and the wall, creating a clean transition and reducing the visual gap typical of standard flat-edge plates. The 13A rating handles standard UK appliance loads up to 3,120W per outlet.
The matt black finish is constructed from premium-grade steel and provides a contemporary accent that pairs well with dark-toned interiors, industrial schemes and modern minimalist spaces. The black insert behind the faceplate hides the back of the cover plate and gives a defined edge to each outlet aperture. The USB-C port supports modern fast-charge protocols, while the USB-A retains compatibility with older cables and devices. Both ports share the 4.0A output, so charging speed adjusts automatically depending on the number of devices connected.

Frequently Asked
What back box depth is required?
A 25-35mm back box depth is needed depending on wiring configuration. The rounded edge plate with built-in gasket adds 7.5mm of projection from the wall once fitted.
What's the USB charging output?
The USB-A and USB-C ports share a 5V 4.0A output. When charging two devices simultaneously, the 4.0A current is split between them. Fast-charge protocols are supported on the USB-C port for compatible devices.
What's the difference between SP and DP switching?
SP (single-pole) switching isolates the live line only when the socket is turned off. DP (double-pole) switching isolates both live and neutral, providing additional safety for high-draw appliances. This is an SP model, suitable for general-purpose use.
What other finishes are available in the rounded edge range?
