GIRA 445370 SCHUKO Socket Outlet with Switch and Hinged Cover, Pure White

In damp or splash-prone areas, a standard socket outlet leaves live contacts exposed to moisture and accidental contact. This GIRA SCHUKO socket outlet with integrated switch and hinged cover solves both problems: the cover seals the socket when not in use, and the switch lets you cut power without unplugging. It is built for the Gira System 55 range, so it fits flush-mounted installations in kitchens, bathrooms, utility rooms, and covered outdoor areas.

Who is it for

Electricians and homeowners who need a safe, durable power point in environments where water, dust, or curious fingers are a concern. The pure white finish blends into standard switch ranges, and the increased touch protection helps prevent children from inserting objects into the socket.
