Description
Copper across the front plate, chrome rockers, and no visible fixings: this is a double 13A socket with USB-C charging built into the face. Both halves are switched, so each can be turned off at the plate rather than at the appliance. The USB-C ports share 45W between them, which is enough to keep a phone and a tablet going together, or to bring a laptop back up over an afternoon. We reach for it where a plug-in charger would otherwise live permanently in one half of a socket.
It earns its keep beside a bed, along a kitchen worktop, on a desk run, or in a hallway where phones land at the end of the day. Anywhere the power points are in constant demand, charging on the plate leaves both sockets free for lamps, kettles and laptops. We specify these most often in bedrooms, where two people, two phones and one socket rarely end well. The screwless plate keeps the front uninterrupted, with no screw heads to gather dust or break up the copper. It is intended for indoor rooms running on a household supply, and it requires an earth connection.
The plate is moulded ABS finished in copper, with the chrome insert reading as a quiet contrast behind the rockers. Looking after it asks very little: a dry cloth across the face now and then, and nothing abrasive or solvent based, since those will mark a copper finish long before they trouble anything else. It carries a ten year warranty. Copper sits warmly against off-white plaster, deeper greens and natural timber, and it works well in a room that already has copper pendants or warm metal handles, so the switch plates read as part of the scheme rather than an afterthought bolted on at the end.

Frequently Asked
How much charging power do the USB-C ports give?
They share 45W between them, so a single device can draw the full amount, while two connected together split what is available.
What size is the plate?
It measures 146mm across and 85mm high, with a back box depth of 35mm.
Are the sockets switched?
Yes, each of the two 13A sockets has its own rocker switch on the plate.
What is the plate made from?
Moulded ABS with a copper finish and a chrome insert.
How should I clean it?
A soft dry cloth is all it needs. Keep cream cleaners, abrasives and solvents away from the copper, as they will dull or scratch the finish.
Can it be used in a bathroom?
No. It is rated for dry indoor rooms only and should not be fitted where it may be exposed to moisture or splashing.
