Description
The Knightsbridge 13A switched fused spur provides double-pole switching for fixed appliances, with an integrated neon indicator that shows at-a-glance whether the circuit is live. The flex outlet at the base of the faceplate allows cables to exit cleanly without needing a separate conduit entry, making it a common choice for controlling hard-wired kitchen appliances, bathroom fans, and washing machines.
Designed for residential and light commercial installation, the unit fits a standard 25mm minimum back box depth and uses premium-grade steel construction finished in matt black with a rounded edge profile. The rocker switch and fuse holder match the faceplate finish, giving a consistent appearance across the entire unit. The double-pole switching isolates both live and neutral lines when switched off, providing additional safety over single-pole switching for high-draw appliances.
The rounded edge design sits slightly proud of the wall (7.5mm projection from the mounting box) and provides a softer profile than traditional square-edge faceplates, making it a comfortable fit in contemporary interiors where sharp angles are avoided. The matt black finish absorbs light rather than reflecting it, reducing glare and pairing cleanly with dark-toned kitchens, bathrooms and utility rooms. The unit is rated IP20 and certified to BS 1363-4.

Frequently Asked
What is a fused spur used for?
A fused spur controls fixed appliances that are hard-wired into the mains rather than plugged into a socket. Common applications include cooker hoods, bathroom extractor fans, washing machines, dishwashers, and towel rails. The integrated fuse protects the appliance circuit independently from the ring main.
What does the neon indicator show?
The neon illuminates when the circuit is live, regardless of whether the switch is on or off. This allows you to confirm at a glance that power is reaching the unit, which is useful when troubleshooting an appliance that is not working.
What is the flex outlet for?
The flex outlet is a knockout aperture at the base of the faceplate that allows the appliance cable to exit cleanly without needing a separate conduit or grommet. This is particularly useful when the appliance sits directly below or beside the spur.
What back box depth is required?
A 25mm minimum back box depth is required for safe installation. The faceplate adds 7.5mm of projection from the wall once fitted.
