Connect And Charge With ConfidenceUSB Charging Solutions for enhanced convenience and safety
Be Supercharged Not UnderpoweredConvenient, safe and reliable fixed installation charging solutions.
In 2013 MK Electric was one of the first UK manufacturers to introduce a range of award winning USB charging modules, integrated into our market leading twin socket. Now, we are pleased to offer a single switched socket outlet to our charging solutions.
MK’s single and twin switched sockets with smart dual port USB
charger, unique Dynamic Device Recognition (DDR) and protection
against short circuit and overload features are perfect for homes,
offices, airports, and the hospitality sector. Users can plug and
charge any smart device – optimally and safely without the need
for additional plug-in chargers or socket adaptors, enhancing their
user experience. Available in both British Standard and International
Standard*, this solution eliminates the need for bulky adaptors and
enables compatibility with different types of the world’s plug-in
standards, making life so much easier when travelling.
MK’s unique Dynamic Device Recognition (DDR) ensures that
each device is charged in its own optimum way. DDR works because
different proprietary devices charge in different ways: whatever make or model you are charging, that device recognises the socket or module as it would its own charger, drawing current from the USB charging socket in the way that best suits its design.

British Standard 13A 2 Gang switched socket with integrated two port smart USB chargerAs 2014 marked the UK production of the 100 millionth socket
for MK Electric at its Southend site, it also signified a milestone
change in the way devices will be powered and charged in the
future. With USB charging capability being built into the most
iconic product within the MK Electric portfolio, USB adoption is
well and truly here to stay.
Yet whilst building innovation into our core, we have stayed true
to our heartland in ensuring that safety, quality and reliability are
at the forefront of everything we design.
All MK 2 Gang USB sockets fit into a 25mm back box with the
exception of Insignia and Aspect, which require a 35mm back box.

USB Integrated Socket FAQs
What charging capacity does the socket provide?The MK Electric USB Integrated socket provides a total of 2A charging capacity. This means that if only one device is connected, the total rated output current of 2A is available from either port. In the event that both ports are connected, the total rated current will be divided between the two ports. This prevents overload and excessive currents being provided to connectors, cables and devices which could generate a safety issue.
MK’s Dynamic Device Recognition detects differing charging configurations and
requirements and reacts accordingly, for example if two devices were charging
simultaneously, more current will be diverted to the device with the least charge
and the biggest demand.
What is Dynamic Device Recognition?Tablet manufacturers have each adopted differing configurations for charging their devices. The MK Electric USB Integrated socket has been designed such that it understands and recognises this nuance and is designed to react accordingly, rather than be aligned to one specific charging configuration. This ensures we provide the optimum charging compatibility across a broad range of devices.
Can I charge two different devices from two different manufacturers at the same time?The MK Electric USB Integrated socket is designed such that the dynamic device recognition is unique to each USB port which means that different manufacturers devices can be charged simultaneously without any impairment to the other. As well as different manufacturers, each port can also charge different types of devices at the same time i.e. the ports are not allocated to specific devices such as tablets or phones.
How can I be sure my device will be compatible?MK Electric has undertaken extensive compatibility testing and found that numerous devices from various manufacturers are compatible.
Which standards do your products conform to? The MK Electric USB charging socket holds the CE mark as it conforms to all the safety certification and approvals applicable for a 13A socket including BS 5733 and relevant parts of BS 1363-2 and IEC 61558-2-16. MK Electric prides itself on delivering the safest solution to our customers, which is why we also have conformity to the relevant directives applicable to electronic products and which should be mandatory for this type of product. This includes IEC 61000-6-1 and IEC 61000-6-3 which covers Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).
What back box depth will I need?All products fit into a 25mm back box with the exception of Insignia and Aspect, which require a 35mm back box. For extra wiring space we would recommend the use of a 47mm back box for Aspect products, in line with current practice. We will also be offering a 10mm moulded pattress to allow retrofit into a shallower box.
Why are your USB ports vertically stacked in the centre of the socket?The MK Electric USB charging socket has its USB ports aligned under the rockers to ensure the least disruption to the 13A plug space. When larger transformer type plugs are used on the 13A outlets, there is the risk that they will cover the USB ports and make them inaccessible if they are located elsewhere on the socket. Locating them in the way that we do allows for all four outlets to be used simultaneously.
