Vasopack SVA 13A Socket
The Vasopack SVA Twin Socket provides a robust power distribution interface for professional environments requiring high-density electrical outlets. This dual-gang unit complies with BS 1363-2 standards to ensure compatibility with standard UK-style three-pin plugs. It integrates seamlessly into commercial office grids and industrial workstations. The SVA series emphasizes mechanical longevity and electrical safety through high-grade material selection. Each outlet supports a full 13-ampere load. This makes the assembly suitable for high-draw hardware including laser printers and server rack peripherals.
The internal architecture utilizes high-conductivity brass components to minimize impedance. This design reduces thermal buildup during prolonged operation under heavy loads. The external housing consists of urea-formaldehyde. This thermosetting plastic offers excellent resistance to electrical tracking and high temperatures. It also possesses antimicrobial properties which benefit healthcare and laboratory installations. The white finish maintains its appearance over time without yellowing from UV exposure or heat. Each unit undergoes rigorous testing to withstand thousands of insertion cycles without loss of contact pressure.

These Vasopack twin sockets are actually quite solid. I bought five for my house renovation in Syokimau and they look very neat on the wall once installed. The switches have a firm click and don’t feel loose like some of the cheaper brands you find downtown. Good value for money for a 13A setup.

Ordered these for our small office in Westlands. They handle the heavy office printers and the water dispenser just fine without heating up. It’s a standard 13A twin socket but the build quality feels a bit more premium. Delivery was also very prompt.

It does the job well. The SVA 13A model is basic but reliable for domestic use. My only small issue was the screws provided were a bit short for the deep backbox I had already installed, so I had to use my own. Otherwise, the socket itself is 100% fine.
