How to use

Have the outlet installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local wiring regulations. The socket connects to the mains supply using standard wiring methods for a 16 A grounded circuit. Ensure the supply is isolated before carrying out installation or maintenance. Once installed, plug compatible appliances directly into the socket and avoid overloading the circuit beyond the 16 A rating. Regularly inspect the outlet for visible damage, looseness or discoloration and arrange professional servicing if any faults are found.

Usage recommendations

Use the socket indoors in locations consistent with its IP21 rating. Avoid exposure to direct splashes, heavy moisture or outdoor weather. For areas with higher moisture or dust exposure, select a product with a higher ingress protection rating. Ensure connected appliances are compatible with a 16 A circuit and that surge protection or residual-current devices are used where required by local safety standards.
