Description

This Knightsbridge 45A DP cooker control unit combines a double-pole cooker switch rated at 45A with a separate 13A switched socket and dual neon indicators, behind a brushed chrome faceplate with a grey insert. The 45A switch controls dedicated cooker circuits up to 10,350W, while the 13A socket provides a separate outlet for smaller kitchen appliances such as kettles, toasters or microwaves without needing an additional wall socket nearby.

Designed for installation within 2 metres of the cooker or hob it controls (as required by UK wiring regulations), the unit allows the cooker circuit to be isolated before cleaning, maintenance or appliance replacement without switching off power at the consumer unit. The double-pole switching isolates both live and neutral lines, providing safer isolation than single-pole designs. Each switch carries a neon indicator — the cooker switch neon shows when the circuit is live, and the socket switch neon confirms the 13A outlet is powered.

The brushed chrome finish on premium-grade steel provides a mid-tone metallic surface that works across modern and traditional kitchen styles. The grey insert behind the faceplate hides the back of the cover plate and defines the edges of the switch rockers and socket aperture. The unit requires a minimum 47mm back box depth and carries a 25-year manufacturer's warranty, reflecting Knightsbridge's confidence in the construction and switching mechanism lifespan.

Frequently Asked

What's the difference between the 45A and 13A switches?

The 45A switch controls the dedicated cooker circuit and can handle up to 10,350W at 230V, suitable for electric cookers, hobs and ovens. The 13A socket is a separate outlet rated at 3,120W maximum, designed for smaller kitchen appliances like kettles or toasters. Each has its own switch and neon indicator.

Why does the cooker switch need to be double-pole?

Double-pole switching isolates both the live and neutral conductors when switched off, providing safer isolation than single-pole designs that only break the live connection. This is the standard requirement for cooker control units under UK wiring regulations.

What back box depth is required?

A minimum 47mm back box depth is needed for safe installation. The faceplate adds approximately 2.5mm of projection from the wall surface once fitted.

What do the neon indicators show?

The cooker switch neon illuminates when the 45A circuit is live and switched on. The socket switch neon illuminates when the 13A outlet is powered and switched on. Both neons help confirm circuit status before maintenance work.
