The single-pole switching cuts the live line when the socket is turned off, making it suitable for standard domestic loads up to 13A per outlet. The dual USB ports share a 5V DC 4.0A output, providing fast-charge capability for modern devices via the USB-C port while retaining compatibility with older USB-A cables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for residential and light commercial installation, the socket fits a standard 25-35mm back box depth depending on cable routing. The screwless cover plate clips onto a separate metal sub-frame, eliminating visible fixings on the wall once fitted and creating a flat, minimalist profile with just 4.3mm projection from the wall surface. The matt black finish on premium-grade steel provides a hardwearing, non-reflective surface that resists fingerprints and pairs well with contemporary, industrial and monochrome interiors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe black insert behind the faceplate creates a defined edge around each outlet aperture and hides the back of the cover plate, maintaining the clean monochrome aesthetic when viewed from any angle. The built-in gasket between the sub-frame and cover plate helps prevent dust ingress and creates a smooth transition to the wall. The matching black rockers complete the monolithic appearance, giving the socket a unified look rather than contrasting switch elements.\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.
