Why Choose the Chint ST2012 13A 1 Gang Double Pole Switched Socket?
The Chint ST2012 is a practical and reliable 13 A 1 gang double pole switched socket designed for general-purpose mains power connections in domestic, commercial and light industrial electrical installations. As part of the Chint Shield Studio range, it combines a classic white plastic fascia with a clean, low-profile design suitable for modern interiors.
The ST2012 incorporates double pole switching, allowing both the live and neutral conductors to be isolated when the socket is switched off. This provides a useful additional level of isolation compared with single pole switched socket designs while retaining straightforward operation for everyday electrical equipment.
With a rated current of 13 A and a 1 gang configuration, the ST2012 provides a compact solution where a single UK socket outlet is required. Its white plastic wall-fitting construction coordinates with other switches, sockets and accessories in the Chint Studio range for a consistent electrical installation.
