USB Socket Buying Guide

What is a USB socket?

A USB socket combines a conventional mains plug outlet with one or more built-in USB charging ports. It allows you to charge compatible devices directly from the wall without using a separate plug-in USB adapter.

What is the difference between a 1-gang and 2-gang USB socket?

A 1-gang USB socket has one mains outlet on a single faceplate, while a 2-gang USB socket provides two mains outlets. Both can include built-in USB charging ports, depending on the model.

What types of USB ports are available?

USB sockets can include traditional USB-A ports, newer USB-C ports or a combination of both. Check the product specification for the exact USB configuration, charging output and compatibility before ordering.

Are USB sockets switched?

Many USB plug sockets include individual switches for the mains outlets, allowing you to control the power without unplugging your appliances. USB charging functionality varies by product, so check the individual specification.

Are USB wall sockets suitable for phones and tablets?

Yes. Built-in USB charging ports can be used with compatible charging cables for devices such as smartphones, tablets and other USB-powered equipment. Check the USB output of the socket against your device's charging requirements.

What finish should I choose?

Choose a finish that complements your other electrical accessories and interior hardware. Brass, antique brass, matt black, chrome, satin brass and white are popular choices for traditional and contemporary interiors.

Can I replace an existing socket with a USB socket?

Many USB sockets are designed as replacements for suitable UK mains sockets, but compatibility depends on the existing back box, wiring and socket specification. Check the product dimensions and installation requirements before ordering. Electrical installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician in accordance with applicable UK wiring regulations, including BS 7671.
