Frequently Asked Questions
What is the benefit of a double pole switched socket?
A double pole switch cuts off both the live and neutral lines when turned off. This guarantees total isolation from the mains network for any plugged-in appliance, providing superior protection against residual electrical faults compared to standard single pole switches.
Does this socket require an extra deep wall box to fit?
The 74SS2SS-W specifies a minimum mounting back box depth of 35mm. This gives the internal terminals, terminal screws, and heavy-gauge multi-strand cables ample clearance to rest safely without forcing or crushing the connections.
Can I install this plate on a freshly plastered wall?
Hamilton strongly discourages installing metal decorative plates on newly plastered or painted surfaces. Plaster and paint retain moisture and contain corrosive chemicals that can break through the protective lacquer coating. Always wait until walls are fully dried out, and use a protective gasket between the plate and the wall.
Who Can Install This?
In the UK, this product should only be installed by a qualified electrician or competent electrical installer in accordance with current IET Wiring Regulations and applicable building regulations.
Who Needs This Product?
The 74SS2SS-W is tailored for interior designers, architects, and property developers who want to step away from white plastic fittings and add sleek, modern hardware accents to a space. Its clean white trim and satin steel plate make it highly requested for contemporary kitchens, modern home offices, upscale hotel rooms, and dining areas where matching appliances and a bright, uncluttered aesthetic are key.
What Else Do You Need With This?
- A suitable 35mm minimum back box is recommended for installation.
- Matching switches, dimmers, fused connection units, and other accessories from the Hamilton Hartland Satin Steel range can be used for a coordinated finish.
- Standard wiring accessories and installation fixings may also be required depending on the installation setup.
