The Quiet Circuit Not every lamp should switch on with the rest of the room, and the 5A round pin socket exists for exactly that reason: it runs on a separate lighting circuit, controlled independently from the general power sockets on the wall, so a floor lamp or table lamp can be switched from a dedicated point rather than a plug that competes with everything else. What's Included This is a module rather than a complete plate, built to the 50mm size and designed to sit within Buster + Punch's UK 50mm Euro Plates system. It comes in Black or White, fitted into a plate alongside other modules to build a plug and switch combination specific to the room. How It Works A 5A round pin socket wired to a dedicated lighting circuit rather than the standard 13A ring main, so it only powers whatever is plugged into it on that circuit, typically controlled by a separate wall switch. Where It Works Best Suited to a living room or bedroom with table lamps or floor lamps on a switched circuit, letting one wall switch control every lamp plugged into 5A sockets around the room. Made By Buster + Punch Buster + Punch's founder Massimo Buster Minale spent his evenings in a Shoreditch garage building motorbikes from parts he'd machined himself, long before he started the company in 2013. That same refusal to accept an off the shelf part carries through to a fitting as small as a 5A module, built to the same standard as the light switches it sits beside.
