Legrand Synergy Authentic – 1 gang switched single pole socket outlet 15A –

A 15-amp switched socket is an electrical outlet that is designed to deliver a maximum current of 15 amps to an electrical device. The socket is typically installed in the walls of buildings and is used to power a wide range of heavy-duty electrical appliances, such as air conditioners, refrigerators, and washing machines. The switch on the socket is used to control the power supply to the connected device. This feature allows the user to turn on or off the power supply, providing greater control over the device and enabling energy savings when it is not in use.
The socket is usually made of durable materials, such as plastic or metal, and is designed to withstand regular use and wear and tear. The socket also has a grounding pin to ensure that the connected device is grounded, which is an important safety feature that protects against electric shock.

Features

• Making it suitable for use with high-power electrical appliances and equipment
• Help you conserve energy and reduce your electricity bills
• Designed to meet strict safety standards, including built-in fuses

How to use

Step 1: Before installing or replacing the socket, make sure the power supply to that particular circuit is turned off. You can do this by turning off the circuit breaker or removing the fuse that supplies power to the circuit.

Step 2: Decide on the location where you want to install the socket. This is typically installed on a wall where a power outlet is needed.

Step 3: If you are replacing an old socket, remove it from the wall by unscrewing the screws that hold it in place. Gently pull the socket out of the wall to reveal the wires behind it.

Step 4: The socket will have three terminals labelled “L,” “N,” and “E.” Connect the incoming “live” (usually brown or red) and “neutral” (usually blue or black) wires and the earth wire (usually green or yellow/green) to the corresponding terminals. It is important to make sure the wires are connected securely and correctly to ensure safety and proper functionality.

Step 5: Once the wires are connected, push the socket back into the wall and secure it in place with screws.

Step 6: Once the socket is installed, turn the power supply back on and test the socket to make sure it is working properly. You can do this by plugging in a device and turning on the switch to supply power to the socket.
