The IP41 rating confirms protection against solid objects over 1mm and vertically dripping water, making it suitable for bathroom installation in zones 2 and 3.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for residential bathrooms, hotel ensuites and washrooms where users may carry devices from different voltage regions, the socket switches automatically between 115V and 230V depending on the device plugged in. The screwless cover plate clips onto a separate metal sub-frame fixed to the back box, eliminating visible screw fixings on the wall once installed. A 47mm minimum back box depth is required, and the socket requires an earth connection under Class I wiring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe polished brass finish provides a warm metallic accent that pairs well with traditional bathroom fittings, brass taps and warm-toned tiles. The black insert behind the brass faceplate hides the back of the cover plate and gives a defined edge to the outlet aperture. The premium-grade steel construction and built-in gasket provide resilience against bathroom moisture and steam over the socket's 25-year warranty period, certified to EN 61558 for isolating transformer safety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\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\u003e43.4 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMin.

UK shavers typically run on 230V, while some international shavers and older models use 115V. The 20VA rating limits the maximum power draw, making the socket suitable for shavers and electric toothbrushes but not for hairdryers or other high-power appliances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this be installed in a bathroom?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
