13A Socket

MK’s sockets have a “child resistant shutter system”, which is designed to inhibit access to the electricity supply, unless all three pins of a British plug are in position. 

By choosing our sockets, you can be sure that you are giving your building the ultimate in electrical protection. All electrical sockets manufactured to the British Standard must incorporate a shutter mechanism. British Standards require that a minimum safety level is achieved in the design and manufacture of electrical accessories. MK’s socket design offers the maximum safety benefit and is the most difficult shutter mechanism to defeat unless correctly used with a British plug.

All standard 13A MK sockets incorporate the 3-pin operated shutter system.
