Tips

To ensure a safe and correct installation of your S-TEC Multi-Function Socket, please consider the following expert advice.

• CRITICAL: MUST BE INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN: This is a mains-voltage socket outlet. Installation must be carried out by a certified electrician to ensure safety, correct wiring, and compliance with all electrical regulations (SANS 10142-1).
• Understanding Shared USB Power: The total output of the USB ports is 2.5A. This power is shared between the USB-A and USB-C ports. If you are charging two high-power devices simultaneously, the charging speed may be reduced for each device.
• Wall Box Depth: Due to the additional electronics for the USB power supply, this socket may be deeper than a standard outlet. Your electrician should ensure that the wall box is of sufficient depth to accommodate the unit and its wiring without strain.
• Socket Types Explained: This unit includes the traditional South African 3-pin socket (SANS 164-1) and the modern, smaller 3-pin socket (SANS 164-2), which is also compatible with 2-pin Europlugs.
• Cleaning: To clean the socket, use a soft, dry, or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or chemical solvents. Always ensure the switches are off before cleaning.
