    Surface-mounted waterproof 2-gang socket outlet with covers, designed for safe connection of electrical devices in areas where moisture, dust, or increased environmental load may be present. Thanks to its IP44 protection rating, the socket is protected against solid particles and water splashes, making it suitable for use in garages, warehouses, laundry rooms, technical rooms, food production areas, and certain outdoor locations under a canopy.

    The socket is installed as a surface-mounted unit, so it does not need to be recessed into the wall. This is a convenient solution both for new electrical installations and for adding an extra power point in existing premises.

    Use

    For household users: This socket is suitable for places where a standard indoor socket is not the best choice. It can be installed in a garage, basement, laundry room, boiler room, storage room, workshop or outdoor area under a canopy. It is a practical choice when a safer connection is needed for a washing machine, dryer, pump, electric tools, lamps or other 230 V electrical devices.

    For electricians: Convenient due to surface-mounted installation, as it can be quickly installed on a wall, partition or technical surface. The double socket allows two connection points to be installed in one place while maintaining a neat appearance of the electrical installation.

    For engineers or technical specialists: Suitable for use in technical zones where a reliable, simple and protected electrical connection point is required. The IP44 class allows the product to be used in environments where water splashes, moisture or dust may occur, but it should not be installed in places where the socket will be directly exposed to heavy rain or continuous water impact.

    For commercial and utility premises: The socket can be used in warehouses, utility buildings, auxiliary food preparation rooms, technical areas, car service workshops, garage halls and outdoor equipment connection points under shelter.
