The socket provides 20VA output for electric shavers and toothbrushes, while the dual USB ports deliver 5V DC at 2.4A (shared) for charging phones, tablets and other small devices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for bathroom installation, the unit carries an IP41 rating protecting against solid objects larger than 1mm and vertically-falling water droplets. The built-in gasket seals the faceplate against the wall, preventing moisture ingress around the mounting box. The screwless cover plate clips onto a separate metal sub-frame, leaving no visible fixings once installed. The 47mm minimum mounting box depth accommodates the transformer and USB circuitry behind the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe smoked bronze finish is a dark, warm metallic tone that sits between gunmetal and aged brass, pairing well with industrial, contemporary and warm-toned traditional bathroom schemes. The black insert behind the faceplate hides the back of the cover plate and defines the aperture edges for the shaver socket and USB ports. The premium-grade steel construction provides durability in high-moisture environments, and the unit is certified to EN 61558 for safety in bathroom applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e147.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e87.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProjection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4.3 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecessed Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e45 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMin.
