Surface mounted socket, white

This surface version is the Sutars compact socket in a plastic shroud. There are threads in the entrance hole on the front so no need for a retainer nut. Well, suitably cut the front will do as retainer nut, should you later decide to recess the socket.

The Plant-on Socket is the one to use when recessing is difficult. It costs a little more than a recessable Socket, but since it takes only two small screw holes to fit it and no tools for a 32 mm (1 1/8 inch) hole, it is very often a cheaper alternative after all.

The cap can be adjusted in all directions and so the text can be read even when the socket is installed sideways on a bulkhead. The fixing hole centres are only 44 mm apart. Screws are not included as this depends on the properties of the surface being fitted too.

There should be a fuse between power source and socket.

For superior service life do not mount in direct sunlight
