Although I saw a lot of verified-purchase reviews on product desertcart page complaining, I ordered regardless because a backbox wasn't crucial in my application. The delivery arrived quickly and packed in bubblewrap well, with the sealed MK stock item inside. Therefore I was pleasantly surprised, and this represented even better value than offerings elsewhere for the same part#. Review: Back box included - Well built. Both sockets came with the metal back boxes. ## Features - Funnel entrance to terminals enables positive cable connection - Tough and impact resistant - Stylish curved design - Comprehensive range - 5-year guarantee ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003YBSYVO | | Amperage | 13 Amps | | Best Sellers Rank | 261,095 in DIY & Tools ( See Top 100 in DIY & Tools ) 1,511 in Wall Electrical Outlets | | Brand | MK | | Colour | White | | Compatible Devices | Television | | Compatible devices | Television | | Connector Type | Plug-In | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 29 Reviews | | EU Spare Part Availability Duration | 5 Years | | Global Trade Identification Number | 05017490246042 | | Included Components | Double-Pole Switch Socket | | Item Type Name | Switch Socket | | Manufacturer | MK | | Manufacturer Part Number | K2946 ALM | | Material | Plastic | | Model Number | K2946 ALM | | Power Plug Type | No Plug | | Power plug type | No Plug | | Smart Home Compatibility | Not Smart Home Compatible | | Total Power Outlets | 2 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** MK - **Colour:** White - **Compatible devices:** Television - **Material:** Plastic - **Power plug type:** No Plug ## Images ![Metalclad Plus K2946 ALM 13 amp 2-Gang Double-Pole Switch Socket, White - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71uLDvaH75L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: The photo shows no metal back box but description states there is one. One review confirms it does not come with a back box; is this true, everytime?** A: The MK K2946 ALM should ship as standard with a back box. Mine came from Amazon (as the seller) and included one. If you order from elsewhere and do not get one, then you should return it as parts are missing. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This genuine MK outlet came WITH backbox *by A***C on 20 July 2025* For me this was a perfect purchase. Although I saw a lot of verified-purchase reviews on product Amazon page complaining, I ordered regardless because a backbox wasn't crucial in my application. The delivery arrived quickly and packed in bubblewrap well, with the sealed MK stock item inside. Therefore I was pleasantly surprised, and this represented even better value than offerings elsewhere for the same part#. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Back box included *by I***N on 7 February 2026* Well built. Both sockets came with the metal back boxes. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best quality accessories I've installed *by S***. on 24 June 2019* MK are still top of the line in my books, and this Metalclad Plus two gang 13A socket is no exception. I bought it to replace a similar single gang socket from another brand that broke apart, and wanted to install something of exceptional build quality. As well as being of solid construction, it's also built with the electrician in mind, with backed-out screws and angled terminals in a row. No messing about trying to get the cpc in the bottom corner with screws facing all different directions. For the avoidance of doubt, the item I purchased came with the back box as standard. ## Frequently Bought Together - MK Metalclad Plus K2946 ALM 13 amp 2-Gang Double-Pole Switch Socket, White - ENERLITES Decorator Light Switch or Receptacle Outlet Wall Plate, Size 2-Gang 4.50" x 4.57", Unbreakable Polycarbonate Thermoplastic, UL Listed, 8832-LA, Light Almond - ENERLITES Duplex Wall Plates Kit, Electrical Outlet Covers, Standard Size 1-Gang 4.50" x 2.76", Unbreakable Polycarbonate Thermoplastic, Electric Receptacle Plug Covers, 8821-W-10PCS, White, 10 Pack --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/48059338-metalclad-plus-k2946-alm-13-amp-2-gang-double-pole](https://www.desertcart.us/products/48059338-metalclad-plus-k2946-alm-13-amp-2-gang-double-pole) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-16*
