In the realm of residential electrical installations, sockets for domestic applications represent the final interface between the grid and the user. These devices, commonly referred to as wall outlets, power points, or receptacles, are designed to provide a safe and reliable connection for portable appliances. Key technical parameters include rated current (typically 10A, 13A, or 16A depending on the standard), rated voltage (230V AC for most domestic systems), and degree of protection (IP20 for indoor use, IP44 for bathrooms or outdoor areas). The construction involves robust thermoplastic enclosures, brass or phosphor bronze contact terminals, and often integrated safety shutters to prevent accidental insertion of foreign objects. These sockets are available in various configurations: single, double, or multiple gangs, with or without USB charging ports, and with features like child-proof shutters or illuminated switches.
These sockets are primarily installed in residential environments, including living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, and hallways. They are also found in light commercial settings such as small offices, hotels, and retail spaces. In industrial contexts, they may be used in control rooms or administrative areas where standard domestic loads are present. The installation is typically flush-mounted within standard wall boxes, following local wiring regulations (e.g., BS 1363 in the UK, DIN 49440 in Germany). They form an integral part of the final distribution circuit, connected via a ring or radial circuit from the consumer unit.
Within this category, key subcategories include single sockets, double sockets, and switched sockets. For the SCAME brand, specific article codes often follow a pattern like SC11.xxx.xx, where the first digits indicate the series (e.g., SC11 for the standard domestic range), the middle digits denote the number of modules or gangs, and the final digits specify color or finish (e.g., white, ivory, or silver). Examples of main articles include the SC11.001.01 for a single unswitched socket, the SC11.002.01 for a double socket, and the SC11.003.01 for a switched single socket. These codes are consistent across the product line, allowing for easy identification of variants.
