BG Electrical Double Switched Standard Weatherproof Outdoor Socket

Good sturdy double socket. Easy to follow instructions. Looks smart teamed with black plastic conduit. Doesn’t close fully with the bigger plugs like on a security camera or Christmas lights but if installed under cover outside like a porch it’s fine.

Great product at a good price no problem at all

I recently purchased the BG Electrical Outdoor Double Switched Power Wall Plug Socket and I couldn’t be happier with this product! Right out of the box, the socket’s robust build and sleek grey design impressed me. It feels incredibly sturdy, and the high-quality materials give me confidence that it’s built to last in tough outdoor conditions. I installed it in my garden to power outdoor lighting and tools, and it’s been an absolute game-changer. The IP66 weatherproof rating is no exaggeration—this socket has withstood heavy rain and windy days without a hitch. The double switched outlets are super convenient, allowing me to control two devices independently, and the secure, easy-to-open cover keeps everything protected when not in use. The installation was straightforward, with clear instructions and all necessary fittings included, making it a breeze even for someone with basic DIY skills like me. The 13A capacity handles my high-powered tools effortlessly, and the overall design blends seamlessly with my outdoor setup. I was so pleased with this socket that I bought a second one for my patio to power additional outdoor equipment! The delivery was fast, and the packaging was secure, ensuring both products arrived in perfect condition. For the price, this socket offers exceptional value, combining durability, functionality, and a professional look. I’ve already recommended it to neighbors who were impressed by its performance. Five stars for this fantastic outdoor socket—I’m thrilled with my purchases and will definitely consider more BG Electrical products in the future!

So I decided to put a outdoor socket on my hut, I already have electric to the hut so it was just a matter of 3 core wire between the mains in the hut and the socket. It's just so easy to install, I didn't even bother with the instructions cos it's really straightforward. Take the back plate and pop one of the disks out for the cable to go through, then just screw the back plate to where the socket is needed. Then connect the cable to the front plate (as you would a plug) and then fasten the 4 screws that seal the front. I ran the cable underneath, so put some clear silicone in the hole to make sure no water gets in. ( Then you connect the other end to the mains and turn back on the fuse) Durability wise I have had one of these before and it's still good after about 5 years, quality wise it's perfect for my needs and it looks good. Just remember to fasten the bottom clips to make a waterproof seal.

Good sturdy constructed outdoor double socket which can be locked to prevent misuse. Has switches with red LED indicators to show power. Clasps are quite tight to fasten and undo but i suppose that's to ensure it's water tight. Happy with it overall.

Does the job

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reliable & Well-Built Outdoor Power Socket — Great Value! I bought the BG Electrical Outdoor Double Switched Power Wall Plug Socket for use in my garden and shed, and overall I’m very impressed. It feels solid and durable straight out of the box, with a robust design that gives me confidence it’ll last through all types of weather. The IP66 weatherproof rating means it handles rain and dust reliably, which is exactly what I needed for outdoor power tools and lighting.  The installation was straightforward with clearly marked terminals and multiple cable entry points — even for a non-professional DIYer like me it was easy to fit. The switches click confidently and the hinged cover feels sturdy enough to protect against moisture.  Compared to other outdoor sockets I’ve looked at, this one offers excellent value for money. It’s priced well and performs just as well (if not better) than more expensive alternatives.  Minor note: the latch on the cover is a bit snug at first, but that just means a tighter weather seal once installed.  👍 Pros: • Solid build quality and reliable weatherproofing  • Easy to install with clear instructions  • Great value compared to alternatives  👎 Cons: • Cover latch can be a bit tight initially  Would highly recommend this outdoor double socket for anyone needing a dependable outdoor power solution!

excellent item very good qaulity

This is a good value replacement for an old single outdoor socket. It is generally well made,but I worry just a little that the Tabs for locking the lid feel a little "fragile" as they require a fairly forcefull push to close and open.....hence 4 Stars only There are several good videos on You Tube about fitting these. Well worth looking at before you proceed. Follow all safety recommendations .Overall I am happy with this item.

رائع جدا لمن يريد المحافظة علي الاسلاك من العوامل الخارجية كالغبار والمطر
