What Should You Check Before Buying?

Use these wall outlets requirements to narrow your shortlist, then verify each requirement for the exact model.

  1. Match the receptacle format and electrical rating to the installation.
  2. Check which sockets are switched and which remain always on.
  3. Verify wiring, wall-box dimensions and installation requirements.
  4. Check energy measurement and recovery after a power interruption.
