Any tips on wiring 3x 2.5mm cpc's into a 13a socket?

Their DP socket has a 2nd earth terminal.

It's the MK Logic Plus DP's that i've been using. Only one terminal for each wire

Turns out they are DP - I'd long thought K2747 was SP.

Anyway, K2746 (with outboard rockers) will have 2 earth terminals.

The only issue I have with MK accessories is that terminal entries aren't 5.5mm flat blade friendly.

I actually prefer the look of those, will probably grab some of them in future.

I think those were the ones intended for "high intergity" earthing for IT use (RFC or looped CPC with separate terminals for eacy connection so loose screw only breaks loop, not allowing anything to be CPC-free), as well as lower risk from accidentally switching off to loads by mistake. Cost a bit more though.

Generally a bit more expensive - probably because Screwfix don't buy them by the billion.

The MK sockets with Wago-style clamps look interesting, got one somewhere but not actually used it yet!

They are indeed.

Hi what do you mean by IT? Racking my brain here and can't think what you mean.

Got a couple of boxes myself and they're great at taking up shelf space.
