Frequently asked questions

5 amp sockets are electrical outlets designed to accommodate plugs with a 5 ampere rating. They are typically identified by their smaller size and narrower pins compared to standard 13 amp sockets used for general-purpose electrical appliances.

5 amp sockets are primarily used in specific applications where lower power consumption is required, such as:

  • Lighting Circuits: Particularly in older installations where lighting circuits are wired with 5 amp outlets for table lamps and decorative lighting.
  • Vintage and Period Properties: Where the original electrical installation included 5 amp sockets and is maintained for historical or aesthetic reasons.
  • Low-Power Devices: Such as audio equipment, certain types of lamps, and other low-wattage appliances.

No, 5 amp sockets are designed specifically for low-power devices and appliances. Attempting to use them with higher power devices can overload the circuit and potentially cause overheating or damage to the socket and wiring. It is essential to match the socket rating with the device’s power requirements.

While 5 amp sockets are less common in new installations for general-purpose use, they can still be installed in specific applications where lower power consumption is required or for maintaining compatibility with existing wiring systems in older properties.

Wiring for 5 amp sockets should comply with electrical regulations and standards applicable to socket outlets. Proper installation involves ensuring correct polarity, earth connection (where required), and adequate circuit protection to prevent overloads and electrical faults.
