{"product_id":"2-gang-double-13a-socket-platinum-silver","title":"2 Gang Double 13A Socket - Platinum Silver","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eA double 13A socket on a screwless plate, with no screw heads on the front face, so it reads as a clean rectangle against the wall. The finish is platinum silver, a soft grey-toned metallic that sits quieter than polished chrome, lifted by a chrome inner section around the switched apertures. Each half has its own rocker switch, giving a positive click and a clear on or off position, so one appliance can be isolated while the other stays live. The long plate format leaves a useful gap between the pin holes, which helps when bulky plugs meet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe would put this where a power point works hard all day: beside a bed, along a kitchen worktop, or at a desk where a monitor and a charger share the same position. Platinum silver is the finish we reach for when a room has brushed or satin metal handles and taps, since it sits alongside them without demanding an exact match, and it settles into pale grey, stone and greige walls more discreetly than a white moulded plate. It suits a refit where the switches and sockets are changed as a set.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe plate and its inner section are moulded polycarbonate, a hard-wearing plastic that holds its colour and shrugs off the small knocks a socket takes from plugs and vacuum cleaners. It is meant for dry rooms inside the house, on an ordinary household supply. To clean, take a dry microfibre cloth to the face and edges; if something sticky has landed, damp the cloth rather than the plate and keep moisture away from the pin holes and the switch surround. It carries a ten year warranty. Screwless plates look best used consistently, so we would carry the same silver through the switches on that wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlatinum Silver\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSecond Colour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChrome\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType of Finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCore\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.16KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e146mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e88mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBack Box Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterials Used\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolycarbonate, Metal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMax.
