Knightsbridge Screwless Shaver socket with dual USB A+C (5V DC 2.4A shared) - polished chrome with grey insert

Product Information

Available in dual voltage types for differing requirements, shaver plug sockets are offered across a wide range of colours, finishes and profiles to complement any bathroom interior. Our varied collection includes a plethora of designs to suit both modern and traditional bathrooms, allowing you to power your devices in style.

Both types of shaver socket-outlet may be either Class I construction (having metal parts required to be earthed) or Class II construction (having no exposed metal parts required to be earthed). The socket-outlet may also incorporate a fuse complying with BS 646 and having a current rating not exceeding 1 A, to protect the current-limiting device against fault current.

The front of a shaver supply unit is marked with the rated voltage(s) and with the symbol shown left.

It occurs to me that it would be a good way to top up on electrons at campsites, if they were routinely in the habit of installing shaver sockets in the ladies'.If the plugged in device fails, then it would have failed anyway, because the AC supply coming from either of the sockets has EXACTLY the same waveform as would be found in any other 240V socket in the rest of the house. ii), which does not allow a shaver socket-outlet conforming to BS 4573 to be installed in a bathroom.

Charging small electronics like a mobile phone are okay to use, however, it’s best to avoid using electronics that require a lot of power.I've been running not just one, but two, toothbrush chargers from the 230V side of a shaver socket for the last 12 years. This also means that they haven’t got the power to support electrical devices that pull a large amount of electricity.
