Schneider Electric single socket with switch and indicator EPH2800123, cream

Schneider Electric single socket with switch and indicator EPH2800123 in cream is a compact wall-mounted power outlet that integrates a single grounded receptacle with a local on/off switch and a visual status indicator. Designed for indoor residential and light commercial environments, this unit fits standard mounting boxes and connects to common wiring systems to provide a convenient, switchable power point where space is limited.

Advantages

The combination of a grounded socket and a built-in switch allows users to control power to the outlet without unplugging devices, while the indicator provides a quick visual confirmation of the circuit state. Its cream finish offers a neutral appearance that blends with common interior finishes. The product is suitable for installation in standard single-gang enclosures and supports direct connection to typical household electrical wiring.

Suitable for

• Providing a switched power point for lamps and small appliances in living rooms and bedrooms
• Use in kitchens or utility rooms for switchable appliances where convenient local control is required
• Light commercial spaces such as offices, reception areas, and meeting rooms where a switchable outlet is needed

When it may not be suitable

This socket is intended for indoor use only and is not designed for outdoor or damp locations. It is not intended for direct connection of high-power industrial equipment or for installations that require specialty sockets, such as high-current three-phase connections or integrated USB charging ports. Ensure the outlet's rated current and voltage are compatible with the intended load before installation.

How to use

Install the socket into a standard single-gang mounting box following local electrical codes and with the supply turned off. Connect live, neutral and earth conductors to the corresponding terminals, secure the device to the box, and attach the faceplate. Use the integrated switch to control power to the connected device; the indicator lamp shows the switched state. For safety, commissioning and any complex wiring work should be carried out by a qualified electrician.

What to consider before purchase

Usage recommendations

For reliable and safe operation, use the built-in switch to cut power to devices when not in use, and avoid connecting high-current appliances that exceed the outlet's rating. Schedule installation and any wiring modifications with a certified electrician to comply with local regulations and ensure correct earthing and circuit protection.
