Description
A double switched socket with charging built into the plate, this pairs full 13A power points with USB-A ports that share their output, rated at 15W between them. The front is a screwless design, clipping over the frame to leave a clean unbroken face with no visible screw heads, and it is finished in platinum silver with a chrome insert behind the rockers. Each socket has its own rocker switch, so a plugged-in appliance can be isolated without pulling the plug out.
We reach for this in bedrooms and home offices, where a phone, a tablet, a lamp and a laptop all want feeding from the same corner. On a kitchen worktop it keeps a charging lead tidy and stops a plug-in adaptor from blocking one of the sockets you actually need. It suits anyone working through a house replacing tired white plastic plates a room at a time, and it is a sensible choice behind a bedside table or a desk, where clutter shows.
The plate is moulded polycarbonate, light and hard-wearing, with a silver finish that shows fingerprints far less than a mirror-polished chrome would. It is a Class 1 product and needs an earth connection, and it is intended for dry indoor rooms on a household supply rather than garages, garden rooms or bathroom zones. For cleaning, switch off at the consumer unit and go over the plate with a dry cloth; keep sprays, damp cloths and liquids away from the USB ports and the pin apertures. It carries a ten year warranty. Set alongside plain screwless plates in a matching finish, a run of them along one wall reads as one set rather than a jumble of odds and ends.
