The box is moulded from white thermoset resin with a rounded edge profile that matches the curved aesthetic of CU-series faceplates, creating a flush fit between the box and the cover plate when installed on the wall surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for surface-mounting in residential and light commercial installations where recessing into the wall is not practical or desired, the 16mm depth provides enough internal space for single-gang switches, sockets or data points with standard cable terminations. The integrated earth terminal allows protective earth continuity to be maintained through the installation without requiring a separate earth block or conductor loop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe thermoset resin construction is harder and more heat-resistant than standard PVC back boxes, maintaining dimensional stability during the life of the installation. The white finish matches standard UK wall colours and the material carries anti-microbial properties tested to ISO 22196:2011, reducing bacterial growth on the box surface in areas where hygiene is a concern. The IP20 rating makes this suitable for dry indoor locations but not wet rooms or outdoor use.\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\u003e86 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e86 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecessed Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConstruction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThermoset resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP20\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEarth Terminal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnti-Microbial Properties\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3rd Party Tested to ISO 22196:2011\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/products_2301374_datasheet.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Specification Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this compatible with standard single-gang accessories?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pattress box is designed specifically for Knightsbridge Curved Edge (CU) series wiring accessories.
