Description

This Knightsbridge cooker control unit combines a 45A double-pole switch with a 13A switched socket on a single brushed chrome faceplate with a grey insert. The 45A switch isolates power to a cooker circuit rated up to 10,440W (at 230V), while the 13A socket provides a separate switched outlet for appliances up to 2,990W. Both switches feature neon indicators that glow when the circuit is live.

Designed for kitchen installation where a cooker or range requires a dedicated isolation switch within 2m of the appliance, this unit adds a 13A socket for ancillary kitchen equipment such as slow cookers, microwaves or extraction hoods. The double-pole switching on the 45A side isolates both live and neutral, allowing safe maintenance or cleaning of the cooker without needing to switch off the consumer unit. The 13A socket operates independently, so it can remain powered while the cooker circuit is isolated.

The premium-grade steel faceplate has a brushed chrome finish that resists fingerprints and pairs with both traditional and contemporary kitchen schemes. The grey insert behind the faceplate provides a neutral backing that defines the switch and socket apertures without introducing strong colour contrast. The unit requires a 47mm minimum back box depth for safe installation, which is deeper than standard single-gang switches to accommodate the higher-rated terminals and wiring.

Frequently Asked

What cooker rating does the 45A switch support?

The 45A double-pole switch handles loads up to 10,440W at 230V, which covers most domestic electric cookers and ranges. Check the nameplate rating on your cooker to confirm compatibility.

Can the 13A socket be used while the cooker switch is off?

Yes. The 13A socket operates independently of the 45A cooker switch, so you can isolate the cooker circuit for maintenance while still using the socket for other appliances.

What do the neon indicators show?

Both the 45A and 13A switches have neon indicators that glow when the circuit is live. If the neon is lit on the 45A switch, power is reaching the cooker terminals even if the switch is off, indicating the circuit breaker is still on.

What back box depth is required?

A 47mm minimum back box depth is needed to accommodate the higher-rated terminals and cable terminations. Standard 25mm or 35mm back boxes are not sufficient for this unit.
