PMax BSR Twin Socket
The PMax Twin Socket Multi-Functional provides a robust power distribution interface for commercial and industrial electrical installations. This dual-gang unit integrates seamlessly into the POWERMAX BSR series architecture. It supports a maximum load of 13 Amps per outlet at a nominal voltage of 250V AC. The internal bridge construction maintains stable electrical contact across high-duty cycles. Engineers specify this model for its reliability in high-traffic IT environments. The white urea-formaldehyde exterior offers natural antimicrobial properties and high heat resistance. This specific configuration facilitates the connection of various international plug standards within a single footprint.

As an electrician, I’ve fitted many of these PMax units. The BSR twin socket is quite reliable for domestic use. The terminals are easy to work with, though make sure your back box is deep enough to accommodate the multi-functional internal components comfortably. Good value for money compared to the high-end brands, but still gives a clean finish on the wall. No complaints from my clients so far.

Installed these in our Westlands office last month. The multi-functional design is a lifesaver because we have staff with different laptop chargers, including the UK and the round pin ones. Very sturdy build and the switches don’t feel cheap like some other brands in the market.

Solid sockets for the price. Delivery to Thika was fast and they look much better than the basic ones I had before. Happy with the purchase.
