The white rockers sit proud of the anthracite front plate, creating the visual contrast required under Part M to assist users with impaired vision or motor control. The socket delivers 5V DC at 4.8A shared output across both USB ports.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePart M compliance makes this socket suitable for residential care facilities, local authority housing, accessible bathrooms, hotel rooms and offices where Building Regulations require accessible electrical fittings. The outboard rockers are larger than standard switch rockers and positioned for easier operation by users with limited dexterity. The anthracite faceplate with white rockers provides the minimum 30-point Munsell contrast value specified in Part M guidance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe faceplate is moulded from thermoset resin with 3rd-party-tested anti-microbial properties certified to ISO 22196:2011, inhibiting bacterial growth on the surface in high-touch environments. The socket has top-access captive terminals, allowing cables to be inserted from above rather than from the sides, which simplifies retrofitting into existing back boxes. Twin earth terminals provide additional earthing options for metal back boxes or daisy-chained circuits. The socket requires a 25-35mm back box depth depending on cable size and termination method.\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\u003e86 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e146 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProjection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMin.
