Ingco HESST0113A Socket 1 Gang

The Ingco HESST0113A Socket 1 Gang appears to be a single electrical outlet designed for residential or commercial electrical installations. Here’s a breakdown of its potential specifications and what to consider before buying one:

Possible Specifications:

• Number of Gangs: 1 – This means it has one socket for plugging in a single appliance.
• Socket Type: Likely BS 1363 (British Standard) – This is a common socket type used in Kenya and many other countries formerly under British influence. Double-check to ensure compatibility with your plugs.
• Voltage and Current Rating: Likely 240V and 13A – This is a standard rating for household outlets in Kenya. Make sure it aligns with your electrical system.
• Material: Plastic construction (likely) – The housing is likely made of a fire-resistant plastic material.

Features (depending on the model):

• Switched Socket (potential): The socket might have an individual on/off switch for added control over the appliance plugged in.
• Safety Shutter (potential): The socket might have a built-in shutter that prevents accidental insertion of objects, especially helpful in homes with children.
• Screw Terminals or Push-Fit Terminals (potential): The wiring connections at the back of the socket could use screw terminals or push-fit terminals. Push-fit terminals are easier for some users to install but might not be available in all regions.
