Compliant with BS1363\/A, the unit provides one standard UK 13A outlet in a compact body that can be moved between locations rather than fitted permanently to a wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for temporary power extension in homes, offices, workshops and light trade environments, the socket suits situations where an additional outlet is needed for tools, appliances or equipment away from existing wall sockets. The cord grip clamps around standard 3-core flex, preventing the cable from being pulled free during use and reducing strain on the internal terminals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe white polycarbonate body resists impact and minor knocks during transport and storage, while the low-profile design allows the socket to sit flat on a worktop or floor without tipping when a plug is inserted. The 13A rating handles standard UK appliance loads up to 3,120W, covering most domestic and light commercial equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat cable does the cord grip accept?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe integrated cord grip accepts standard 3-core flexible mains cable (e.g. 1.5mm² or 2.5mm² flex).
