The single-pole switching breaks the live conductor when the socket is switched off, reducing standby power draw for appliances left plugged in overnight or during extended periods away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for home offices, kitchens, bedrooms and living areas where device charging and standard appliance power are needed in the same location, 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 fixed to the back box, concealing all screws and fixings once installed and creating a smooth wall finish that sits just 4.3mm proud of the mounting surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe polished chrome finish provides a high-gloss metallic surface that reflects light and pairs well with contemporary, modern and minimalist interiors. The black insert behind the chrome faceplate hides the back of the cover plate and defines the edges of each outlet aperture and switch rocker. The dual USB ports share a 5V 4.0A output, allowing simultaneous charging of two devices with the USB-C port supporting modern fast-charge protocols and the USB-A maintaining compatibility with older cables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\" style=\"width: 100%;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.7345%;\"\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 62.0446%;\"\u003e87.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.7345%;\"\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 62.0446%;\"\u003e147.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.7345%;\"\u003eProjection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 62.0446%;\"\u003e4.3 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 37.7345%;\"\u003eMin.

The screwless cover plate adds 4.3mm of projection from the wall once fitted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's the USB charging output?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dual USB ports share a 5V 4.0A output. The USB-C port supports modern fast-charge protocols, while the USB-A maintains compatibility with older devices and cables. Always use certified USB cables to ensure safety and charging performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's the difference between SP and DP switching?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSingle-pole (SP) switching breaks only the live conductor when the socket is switched off. Double-pole (DP) switching breaks both live and neutral. SP is standard for most residential installations; DP is preferred for commercial settings or high-draw appliances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the screwless plate removable for redecorating?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The polished chrome 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Knightsbridge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45293693403403,"sku":"SFR9940PC","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/1527020_7aa0c380-c6b5-4c40-bef2-58c0dd689e62.jpg?v=1714662703","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/13a-2-gang-sp-switched-socket-dual-usb-a-usb-c-polished-chrome-screwless-black-insert","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
