The smoked bronze screwless faceplate with black insert conceals all fixings behind a clip-on cover plate that sits flush to the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt for bathroom installation, the socket carries an IP41 rating, protecting internal components from solid objects over 1mm and vertically falling water droplets. This makes it safe for use in bathroom zones 2 and 3 under BS 7671 wiring regulations, typically positioned at least 600mm from a bath or shower enclosure. The socket requires a minimum 47mm back box depth and connects to mains via a fused spur or dedicated circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe smoked bronze finish provides a darker metallic tone than standard brass or chrome, sitting between gunmetal grey and antique bronze in appearance. The premium-grade steel construction gives the faceplate structural rigidity and the screwless design means the visible surface shows no screw heads or fixings once installed. The socket is certified to EN 61558 for safety transformer standards and includes an earth terminal for Class I wiring compliance.\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.
