The socket accepts BS 546 round pin plugs and provides a single earthed outlet rated at 5A on 230V mains, suitable for lighting circuits, low-draw appliances and legacy equipment requiring round pin connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for modular electrical installations in residential, hospitality and commercial settings, the module clips into Knightsbridge's euro-module faceplates alongside other grid modules including switches, dimmers, data outlets and USB charging ports. The 26mm recessed depth fits standard 25mm minimum back boxes, and the module locks into the faceplate frame without requiring individual module fixings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe white ABS construction matches Knightsbridge's wider white grid system and carries IP20 rating for general indoor use. The unswitched design provides a permanent live connection when the circuit is energised, making it suitable for applications where switching happens at the appliance rather than the socket. The earth terminal provides safety grounding for connected equipment.\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\u003e50 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecessed Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMin.

The 5A rating suits low-draw applications where the newer BS 1363 13A square pin standard is not required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this module compatible with all euro-module faceplates?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe module is designed for Knightsbridge's 50x50mm euro-module grid system. It clips into Knightsbridge grid faceplates that accept 50x50mm modules. Compatibility with other manufacturers' grid systems depends on whether they use the same 50mm pitch and clip mechanism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat back box depth is required?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 25mm minimum back box depth is needed.
