1 gang socket

Start by identifying the type of outlet you need and the intended use. In this category, you’ll find 2P 16A Euroamerican type sockets, variations with 2P+E, and models with safety shutters for different countries (UK, Schuko/Germany). Check the current rating (usually 16 A), the rated voltage (250 V), and the frequency (50/60 Hz), as well as the mounting method (clip-in or flush-mounted). Measure the mounting base and the recessed depth (about 24 mm) and choose a color that matches your décor (white, beige, anthracite).

The built-in mechanism and safety features—especially protective shutters and the presence of an earth/ground conductor—are crucial. Shuttered outlets prevent direct contact with live parts, particularly in homes with children. In addition, 2P+E sockets provide a connection to ground for electrical devices. The examples available include British versions with shutters, Schuko versions with shutters, and versions without shutters—this impacts compatibility with your plugs and the safety level you need.

For homes or residential spaces, choose 2P+E sockets with shutters in neutral colors (white/beige) for a discreet look and enhanced safety. In professional or technical areas, you may need specific versions (UK 3-pin or Schuko) depending on your existing electrical installation. Accessories such as white faceplates and frames help organize multi-outlet installations without affecting aesthetics, while still ensuring reliable mounting and good insulation.

Make sure the cable you use has a conductor size between 0 and 4 mm², and that the installation is done on a single module with an approximate depth of 24 mm. Plugs feature screw terminals and a clip-in mechanism depending on the model. For durability, the components resist common household liquids such as soapy water and diluted solutions, and the insulation meets high standards. Clean with a dry cloth and avoid placing liquids directly on the contacts.

Yes. These sockets install into compatible frames and faceplates for a single module for a clean setup. You can find white faceplates, triple frames, or blank/closing plates designed for different module counts. Make sure the frame/faceplate matches the “1 module” format and the socket type (2P, 2P+E, or UK) to avoid visible gaps and ensure a secure fit.

You have several finishes and colors: glossy white for a bright look, beige for discreet integration, and anthracite for a modern, elegant style. Some versions even come in beige and light beige to match specific walls or furniture. When choosing a color, also consider safety shutters if you have children—so you can balance safety and aesthetics in your space.
