Most electricians only install boring white plastic sockets or metalclad sockets in industrial premises but somebody here might have knowledge of decorative chrome, brass, stainless steel etc. sockets.


MK offer a diverse range of finishes and styles but they don't come cheap. Are they really better quality than other brands or do you just pay for the name?


Contactum are a bit tricky to find but they are more competitively priced. They claim that they are British made. What do you think of them?


G&H Brassware spoil you for choice with their range of finishes and styles but I suspect that they just make the metal fascia plates then use workings from another manufacturer. Are they any good because there isn't much information about them?


LAP I have been informed stands for lousy and problematic or lousy and popular. They are sold by Screwfix but real electricians won't buy them.


Is BG (British General) a good brand or not?


Wessex is sold by Toolstation but they appear to be an own brand. Who actually manufactures them?
