Timeguard TW1409DPA Weathersafe Grey 13A 30mA IP66 2 Gang Non-Latching (Active) RCD Protected White Switchsocket

Timeguard TW1409DPA Description

The Timeguard TW1409DPA Weathersafe IP66 2-Gang Switched Socket with Active RCD is part of Timeguard’s robust Weathersafe outdoor wiring accessory range — designed to provide reliable, compliant power distribution in gardens, patios, garages, workshops and other exposed environments. The product is IP66 rated for protection against dust ingress and powerful water jets, giving confidence in tough indoor or outdoor installation conditions.

This versatile unit features two double-pole switched sockets, and is pre-fitted with an Active RCD (Residual Current Device) that continuously monitors earth leakage and cuts the supply if a fault is detected, helping to reduce the risk of electric shock. Unlike passive RCD versions, the Active RCD in this model provides enhanced detection performance, particularly suitable for use with a wider range of tools and equipment. After a power interruption, the RCD must be manually reset, which is a common safety requirement for outdoor circuits.

The TW1409DPA is built into a grey impact-resistant polycarbonate housing with translucent covers that allow you to see socket neon indicators, and includes locking points on the cover for optional padlocking to restrict access. Installer-friendly features such as fast-fix screws, separated back box mounting points to preserve the IP66 rating during installation, and multiple drill-out cable entry points on all sides enhance both safety and flexibility during fit-out.

Timeguard’s Weathersafe sockets combine practical outdoor design with safety and durability, making them suitable for both residential and light commercial weather-exposed power needs.
