Socket-outlet Type F ShiverPeaks BS83905-10

The ShiverPeaks BS83905-10 socket-outlet is a Type F wall plate designed to provide a combined electrical and coaxial connection in a single unit. It integrates a grounded mains socket with a built-in coaxial connector featuring a fixed attenuation of 10 dB. Supplied as a single unit per pack, this outlet is intended for straightforward installation in residential or light-commercial environments where both power and low-level coaxial signal attenuation are required.

Advantages

This socket-outlet offers Type F compatibility with grounded appliances and incorporates a coaxial line with 10 dB attenuation to reduce signal strength without separate attenuators. The integrated design saves wall space and simplifies cabling by combining power and coax connections on one plate. The unit is supplied ready for installation, supporting standard mounting procedures and providing a tidy finish for wall installations.

Suitable for

• Residential rooms requiring both mains power and a moderated coaxial signal
• Light-commercial spaces such as small offices or hotel rooms
• Audio-visual setups where signal attenuation of 10 dB is desirable
• Renovation projects that aim to reduce visible cabling

Key specifications

• Socket type: Type F (grounded, two-pin with earth contacts)
• Coaxial connector: integrated coax outlet with 10 dB attenuation
• Pack contents: one socket-outlet unit per package
• Installation: wall-mounted, standard flush mounting compatible
• Finish: wall-plate style construction suitable for flush installation

How to use

Switch off the supply at the circuit breaker before installation and confirm that the mounting box and wiring comply with local electrical regulations. Fit the unit into a standard flush mounting box, connect the mains conductors to the appropriate terminals for Live, Neutral and Earth following the wiring diagram supplied with the product, and attach the incoming and outgoing coaxial cables to the coax connector. Secure the plate to the wall box and restore power to test the electrical socket and the coaxial output. Verify that the coaxial signal level meets system requirements after the fixed 10 dB attenuation.

Recommendations

Use this outlet where a modest, fixed coaxial attenuation is needed to prevent signal overload of tuners or set-top boxes. Ensure coaxial cable shielding and connections are intact to maintain signal quality, and have installations inspected by a qualified electrician to confirm compliance with local standards.
