Make of socket??

[Davisss]

Hi there,I am in need of a bit of assistance with trying to trace a make for these sockets. They are flatplate antique brass I think but no idea of who makes them. I need to source one as they have a faulty one.

Many thanks in anticipation,
Dave.

They look very "Cheapanese", but I have no idea who may admit to having imported them !

Looks a bit like contactum, but not quite.

possibly a discontinued hafele product?

 

[Dave OCD]

The terminals look like 'Lap' sockets but there are a few makes like that out there. Looking at the general condition of the socket pictured I'd be inclined to replace them all.

That's because you have OCD Dave!

Possibly DIY specials, marbro from b and q.

Sure they come with the little sticker on like them.

They kinda look like Volex sockets. I fitted some about 4 years a go at the request of a customer

Just take it in to your wholesalers and get them to find one,

Terminals look like GET....(I fitted some metalclad sockets recently that were really similar to them..)
I have a personal loathing for GET...they just feel cheap, nasty and horrid....even the switch rockers have play in them brand new...yuck...
