Bachmann 917.062 is a black socket safety cover supplied as a single piece. It is designed to protect unused electrical and data outlets from dust, dirt and accidental contact.

A metal holder on the rear provides extra mechanical strength, making this protective cap suitable for everyday domestic use and for light commercial environments where outlet protection and tidy appearance are needed.

Advantages

The socket safety cover offers simple and reliable protection for unused outlets by preventing dust ingress and reducing the risk of accidental contact. Its keystone fitting accepts standard data modules for flexible use with different connector types. The integrated metal holder on the rear increases mechanical stability under stress. The product is compact, easy to install and supplied as a single unit in a neutral black finish that blends with most interiors.

Suitable for

• Protecting unused electrical wall sockets in homes and offices
• Covering unused data or network keystone ports
• Temporary protection during cleaning, renovation or maintenance
• Environments where child safety and dust prevention are required

Key specifications

• Colour: black
• Quantity: 1 piece
• Module type: keystone-style module accepting one data socket
• Rear support: metal holder for high mechanical stress resistance
• Intended use: protective cover for unused electrical and data outlets
• Installation: snap-in or screw mounting compatible with standard socket openings

How to use

Insert the keystone module or desired data insert into the front opening if required, then position the cover over the unused socket opening. Align the cover so the rear metal holder sits correctly against the mounting surface. Secure the cover according to the existing outlet frame: either snap it into place in compatible frames or attach with the existing mounting screw(s). Check that the cover is firmly seated to ensure stable mechanical protection and to prevent accidental removal.

Recommendations

Use this protective cap on outlets that are not in active use to reduce dust accumulation and limit accidental contact. Avoid using the cover on sockets that are expected to carry higher mechanical loads or specialised industrial connectors. For installations in high-traffic public areas, verify compatibility with the local mounting frames and consider periodic inspection to ensure the rear metal holder remains secure.
