13A Single Switched Socket (BS1363)

Use and selection

A switched socket provides a connection point for compatible plug-in appliances, with switching at the wall plate. Use it when planning a new outlet or replacing an existing accessory with the same electrical and physical requirements. The socket format matters as much as its current rating: choose the number of outlets needed and confirm the matching mounting arrangement before ordering.

Listed specification

Documentation and installation

The catalogue lists UKCA, CE, BS1363-2 as documentation references to confirm. These references are not a verified certification claim. Ask for the applicable manufacturer’s data and supporting documentation before specifying this product. Check the accessory dimensions, terminal capacity and required back-box depth against the manufacturer’s data. A socket’s current rating does not establish the capacity of the whole circuit. The installer should assess the supply, protection and intended load together. Choose a finish and mounting box only after confirming that they belong to the same compatible installation.
