UK BS1363 Female Socket Adapter

This two-pack supplies DIY rewireable UK BS1363 female sockets rated at 13 A and 250 V. Each unit is built from ABS plastic with pure copper conductors and carries CE certification. The detachable design allows straightforward wire replacement or custom cable assemblies for repair and prototyping work.

Replaces fixed moulded plugs

Swapping a damaged or non-rewireable mains plug with these detachable sockets restores a safe connection without replacing the entire cable. The jump is worth it when the existing flex is sound but the original plug is cracked, non-compliant or cannot be opened for inspection.

Suits hobbyists and repair technicians

Makers building custom mains leads, appliance repairers needing a serviceable termination, and installers requiring BS1363 compliance will find the adapter practical. Buyers who want a ready-made extension lead, a voltage-changing travel adapter or a higher current rating should look at something else.

Questions about this item

What are the dimensions of each female socket so I can check if it fits my enclosure?

Each socket measures 68 by 54 by 29 millimetres, or 2.68 by 2.13 by 1.14 inches.

How do I wire the detachable UK BS1363 socket and what step is often missed?

Open the housing, connect live, neutral and earth to the marked terminals, tighten the cord grip, then re-assemble; the step often missed is securing the cord grip before closing the cover.

When should I replace the adapter and what indicates wear?

Replace it if the housing cracks, pins become loose, or the CE-marked ABS and copper construction shows discolouration or overheating signs.
