## Description

Pro Elec 868 SINGLE TO DOUBLE 13A SOCKET CONVERTOR

Review: A simple and cheap solution for single socket conversion to double. - A simple way to convert a single socket to a double without having to cut into plaster and brick. Works very well, requiring only a screwdriver and a double socket (with power off, of course!). Leaves the socket proud of the wall, so not quite as neat as cutting out and then fitting a new double socket box, but much quicker with less mess.
Review: Sturdy and well made. - Good sturdy construction. Like the rear metal plate to give a bit of flex and pull tight down and then also secure with additional screws as per usual surface mount patress. Excellent.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this available in black**
A: No, it is not

**Q: Is it ok to run a multiple gang extension lead from this?**
A: This unit allows you to replace a single socket with a double socket; so you could run a multiple gang extension provided that the overall current draw does not exceed the capacity of the wiring, circuit breaker and electrical components installed.

**Q: Does this come with the face plate? I want to use it as a replacement for a single to double socket thats already there but one switch is fried**
A: Hi,
No, it does not.  You simply get the item shown - just the adaptor which allows you to fit a "double" outlet of your own choice!

R

**Q: Fit plasterboard**
A: If you have a plasterboard wall its really easy to convert using a metal twin box or plasterboard recessed boxs by cutting the wall hole to size 
This is meant for brick wall where filling or plastering will be required to repair so keeping costs down to convert single to twin.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does the job.
*by Q***G on 9 June 2021*

I had a block extender in an airing cupboard that, with plug fitted, stuck out quite a way into the cupboard. I could have left as is, I could have changed to a double pattress/socket as it was in plasterboard but as I'd previously bought a double socket I opted for the easy fix without cutting away plasterboard and realised the existing single socket fixings would be a good anchor for the new parts. First: Chuck away the supplied screws for mounting the facia socket option, they're too short and only suited for thin insulating card. Second: You'll find, like I did, the existing cables cannot be pulled to a length suitable to reach the new facia socket option. I had to extend these, including the earth, using suitable cable and connectors. This is not a design fault but just down to luck with what you find. Third: Feed cables through (need I say power has to be isolated, if doubt get an electrician to fit) and make sure this fits flat to the wall. It's secured by 2 screws to the original pattress by use of the metal square plate. My only gripe was the square fixing plate has 2 fixings across the diagonal and this can cause some wobble across the diagonal so why not fit 4 in each corner? You can adjust the screws in the metal square part if required to help level it on the wall, I also found that if using a cutout to feed a cable into the pattress you can slacken these to allow an easier fit of the cable into said pattress. Fourth: Check there's no wobble, adjust screws to suit and then wire up to the new facia socket and finally push facia onto pattress/adaptor and secure with screws. The facia socket can be any double type. Eg X2 240Vac mains sockets or similar. In my case I used one with a single 240Vac and a switched output cable to supply a fused/RCD extension wall socket. Overall good value for money, did not crack, even when I cut out for a cable entry. When screws were adjusted properly the wobble (uneven walls in an airing cupboard) disappeared.
