This product is brilliant. Well made. Seems to conform to BS regs and is just what I needed. Yes the cable holes are tight especially with a ring main circuit but nothing a bit of tidying and snipping didn't cure. All in all a great product and a great price. Took minutes to install and is working well. Thoroughly recommend it to all.Not sure I believe some of the reviews on here now after actually seeing it and fitting it myself. I think some reviews may be from very inept people with little or no skill or practicality at all.Just use your brain take your time and this product will do you proud. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Beware! *by D***E on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 January 2018* Nice looking kit; but 'iffy'.The 'nice' diagram shows one cable and a direct view of terminals. Real world: 2 cables [D'OH, it's a Ring Main]; too short to see in the back: if you've got three - a spur out - abandon ship, and go to pub! Anyway I fitted it, did the pliers test, and wires pulled out! I've wired for 50years: this does not happen! If you look at pics, there are odd 'tangs' between screw and brass terminal block:[the terminals are NOT riveted on to the rails!] Kit arrives, with screw half-in, touching said tang - the cable is meant to squeeze in the remaining gap [just]. BUT, I always 'open' socket terminals, by unscrewing, to make room for the cables: resulting in the cables - unseen - going in the screw side of the tang....a recipe for disaster. [the tang bends down to the brass at an angle, ensuring the wires will slip out]. Be VERY careful, if you fit these sockets!The socket shutters are not only childproof; but, bombproof - an odd design. I actually had to spray silicone grease on before the plug would insert.I'll be kind, and call this 'an innovative, minimalist design': it turned a five-minute job into an hour; prompting the sacrifice - of a second unit - to show you the potential danger. ## Frequently Bought Together - BG Electrical Double Switched Converter Power Plug Wall Socket, Nexus 800 Series, White Moulded, Round Edge, 13A, 822CON - BG Electrical Single Wall Light Switch, 2 Way, Round Edge, Nexus 800 Series, White Moulded, 20A, 16AX, 812 - BG Electrical Double Switched Power Wall Plug Socket with Two USB Charging Ports, Round Edge, White Moulded, 13A, 15W, 822U3 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.br/products/335234724-bg-electrical-822con-01-double-switched-converter-power-socket-white](https://www.desertcart.com.br/products/335234724-bg-electrical-822con-01-double-switched-converter-power-socket-white) --- *Product available on Desertcart Brazil* *Store origin: BR* *Last updated: 2026-05-21*
