Once upon a time everyone had the regular plastic moulded switched or unswitched sockets, but those times are long gone. Nowadays, whether telephone socket, co-axial socket, data socket, satellite socket, shaver socket or a regular socket, the sockets can be in metal finish (like the satin chrome or brushed steel), with or without insert. Below are the types of screwed flat plate sockets presented on this website.

BG Nexus Sockets

All the following sockets are in brushed steel finish (also called stainless steel, brushed / satin chrome, nickel), a fashionable design - a most competitive range of sockets.
The metal flat plate sockets can be 1 gang (1G) or 2 gang (2G).
The sockets can be switched or unswitched, depending on the type, with no rim around the switch(if they are switched).
The BG Nexus range of sockets has a fixed plastic gasket, which protects the metal surface from moisture (that can lead to rust).
